Nearly 400 employees at a Missouri pork plant tested positive for COVID-19.

All of them were asymptomatic.

Triumph Foods, a pork processing plant in St. Joseph, Missouri, held company-wide coronavirus testing last week.

By Sunday, 374 employees had received positive results, state heath officials told Business Insider. But none of them showed symptoms of the disease.

Triumph Foods employs more than 2,800 workers at the plant in St. Joseph, meaning about 13% tested positive for the virus.

"Those with positive tests have been asked to self-isolate at home. They will be paid according to COVID wage continuation policy," CEO Mark Campbell said in a video to employees on Sunday.
