Major supermarket chains are beginning to report their first coronavirus-related employee deaths, leading to store closures and increasing anxiety among grocery workers as the pandemic intensifies across the country.
A Trader Joes worker in Scarsdale, N.Y., a greeter at a Giant store in Largo, Md., and two Walmart employees from the same Chicago-area store have died of covid-19, the disease the novel coronavirus causes, in recent days, the companies confirmed Monday.
Though more than 40 states have ordered nonessential businesses to close and told residents to stay home to stem the spread of the virus, supermarkets are among the retailers that remain open.
Industry experts say the rise of worker infections and deaths will likely have a ripple effect on grocers ability to retain and add new workers at a time when theyre looking to rapidly hire thousands of temporary employees.
Walmart, the nations largest grocer, is hiring 150,000 workers, while Kroger is adding more than 10,000.

Starts with the WHO, then CDC.
My first thought as well. Figured I'd read through the thread to see if anyone else made that connection. It was probably the signal to start the next wave of propaganda.
The mortality rate will probably increase quite a bit in time, when the remainder of the cases are resolved.
