Workers at re-opened Tesla plant test positive for coronavirus
- firasd 6y agoFor me this boils down to what I was saying at the time (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23130220 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23130220), that we hear a lot about what Elon Musk thinks about whether the factory is safe, and what the county thinks, but I wonder what the workers think. Looks like this journalist finally got some info. (The other issue I was wondering is: if Elon is so confident that everything is safe, would he be willing to provide an undergirding guarantee for treatment and compensation if someone does catch Covid? I doubt it because he is big on parsing 'deaths from Covid' vs 'deaths with Covid'.)
- Apocryphon 6y agoSo in the rush to open the plant, Musk might have caused greater delays?
- firasd 6y agoIt's hard to tell but apparently workers report "some on their production lines might disappear for two weeks without explanation - a likely effect of extreme precautions".
- xenospn 6y agoWhy do workers have to speak “anonymously for fear of retaliation”? What kind of company is this?
