ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.—Tyson Foods is looking into reports that China’s customs agency has suspended poultry imports from a Tyson facility in the United States after CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as novel coronavirus, cases were confirmed among its employees.
A Tyson spokesman said Sunday that the plant in question is in Springdale, Arkansas.
“At Tyson, our top priority is the health and safety of our team members, and we work closely with the US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service to ensure that we produce all of our food in full compliance with government safety requirements,” wrote spokesman Gary Mickelson in an email to The Associated Press.
