Tyson poultry plant didn't cause McCurtain County outbreak, health department says [View all]
The outbreak of COVID-19 that has driven cases in McCurtain County from 200 to 606 in three weeks includes a Tyson Foods poultry plant but didn’t originate at the facility, according to the Oklahoma State Health Department.
“This is not a Tyson Foods outbreak; it is a community outbreak and Tyson is located in this community,” the department said in a statement to The Oklahoman.
“Tyson has worked in close coordination with government entities to increase health safety measures as it relates to COVID-19.”
The state Health Department has been slow to respond to questions from The Oklahoman about the McCurtain County outbreak, and the company has declined to provide an update for over two weeks.
