Today, Public Health has confirmed five cases of COVID-19 among employees working in the company’s production facility. The first case was reported to Public Health this morning.

Production at the facility is stopped, and Public Health is partnering with Pacific Crest to develop a plan for testing all employees.

Employees who have tested positive are instructed to isolate at home until they are no longer contagious. Public Health staff is interviewing all positive cases to identify and notify close contacts, who will be asked to quarantine for 14 days.

This is an ongoing investigation. Public Health will provide an update on Friday.
