For Labor Notes and the Intercept, I reported on IBEW members who contracted COVID while building a vaccine packaging facility in Indiana that had rampant health and safety violations on the part of contractor ERMCO and Operation Warp Speed partner Catalent. Lots of wild details in this one, another look at the human costs of the US’s response to the pandemic. If you have any similar stories, drop me a line.
