New York (CNN Business)Tyson Foods (TSN) is warning that "millions of pounds of meat" will disappear from the supply chain as the coronavirus pandemic pushes food processing plants to close, leading to product shortages in grocery stores across the country. "The food supply chain is breaking," wrote board chairman John Tyson in a full-page advertisement published Sunday in The New York Times, Washington Post and Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

US farmers don't have anywhere to sell their livestock, he said, adding that "millions of animals — chickens, pigs and cattle — will be depopulated because of the closure of our processing facilities." "There will be limited supply of our products available in grocery stores until we are able to reopen our facilities that are currently closed," Tyson wrote.

It’s all part of the plan.

Interesting that Trump is dead silent on the US oil industry tanking, meat production in trouble, and the general destruction of our economy!

President Trump, where are you?

....

President Birx advises against them opening at this time. Perhaps in a month or two.

Such a thing would cut into the profits.

And that would never do.

Depopulation by pandemic or starvation.

The elites approve both!

Very nice Mr. Tyson. You are deliberately instigating a panic that will cause hording. Even if what you say is true your ad is irresponsible. F*** you Sir!

You need material to process for opening up to do any good. Ranchers are slaughtering animals because the bottom has dropped out on demand. It takes money and space to keep unwanted animals alive. And the government won’t tell anyone how long that will be.

The lockdowns may have saved a few lives from succumbing to Corona. That is the only criteria that counts. No one is allowed to die from Corona any other cause of death is acceptable.

We have a Tyson plant in Amarillo Texas. Lots of Somalis and ILLEGALS work there. No word on closing it yet.

Yep, people no longer fear the virus. We're not seeing bodies pile up in the streets. Gotta keep the fear up, so now it is the food supply.

Published, or we should say spewed forth by, the NYT. Of course.
