5 COVID-19 cases confirmed at Boeing Everett; 2 additional tests returned negative

Boeing's Everett plant has confirmed five cases of COVID-19. An additional two workers there were tested, but tests came back negative.

The affected employees are in quarantine and are receiving medical care, according to an internal email obtained by SeattlePI.

The Everett plant remained open and operating, Boeing spokesman Bernard Choi said in an email. Due to privacy concerns, the company did not confirm which projects the employees had worked on. The company was contacting employees directly if they determined a direct contact with an infected person was possible

Meanwhile, Boeing has "stepped up" cleaning across all sites, the internal email states, including areas like elevator buttons, door knobs, hand rails and flat surfaces in cafeterias.
