Workers at a Nissan plant in Mississippi have tested positive for the novel coronavirus. A spokesperson for the Nissan Group of North America confirmed in a statement Friday that three individuals at their manufacturing facility in Canton have tested positive for COVID-19 after showing symptoms while at work. "The three individuals did not work together or in the same area," said Lloryn Love-Carter, a Nissan spokesperson. "They were immediately requested to seek medical attention, and additional workers who may have come into direct contact with these individuals were notified and are now quarantined." Love-Carter said there is no indication at this time that the individuals contracted coronavirus while at work. The potentially affected work areas were disinfected. There was no word on the conditions of the three workers.
