This is pretty much why there are all of these big outbreaks in Meat Packing plants, but not in grocery stores. It's because most of their employees are illegals packed into cramped living quarters.

I’m in farm country in CA, they are leaving en masse. Beyond that, because of trumps restrictions the cost for the coyotes to bring you back is 15000 US dollars when before trump it was around $5000

We’re having “outbreaks” of COVID- 1984 in at least three packing plants now; the number of cases related to those plants are more than the number of cases in our two most populated cities combined (no meat packing plants in those cities). Now employees are protesting “unsafe working conditions”

A lot of companies that were included in original stay at home orders have no become exempt and allowed to employ their staff but those staff are now making as much or more (with added 600$ benefit) than they were making while employed and choosing to remain unemployed because of it. Met a guy yesterday who owns a few restaurants and is having this issue currently he cant get anyone to come in and work because they make more money doing nothing.
