[...] But in their food safety meeting today, Chipotle has reportedly identified the culprit in its other norovirus outbreak: sick Chipotle employees. CNBC just reported the update from inside the nationwide restaurant meeting that shutdown all Chipotle’s simultaneously today. [...] there isn’t much mysterious about the spread of norovirus: It spreads from either person-to-person or from something (food, a countertop) that a sick person has touched. In other words, there was never really much real puzzlement on this subject. The root cause of the norovirus outbreak is almost always traced by the CDC back to sick employees. The bigger question for norovirus is then not what caused it but how to stop it—and the best way to do that is to let sick employees have the chance to stay home, without losing out on their paycheck. Until now, Chipotle employees only get two days of paid sick leave—not much time to get over a bout of stomach flu. Chipotle’s new guidelines say paid sick leave is now being expanded—though by how much isn’t specified. Employees at the meeting were reportedly told to watch out especially for “nausea, vomiting, explosive diarrhea, yellowing of the skin and eyes and dark urine,” any and all of which sound like excellent cause for several sick days.

All of these employees in all of these locations all of a sudden had outbreaks that only struck Chipotle stores because of sick employees. No Taco Bells or Jack in the Boxes or McDonalds were affected. Sure, Uh huh. Chipotle's Food Poisoning Issue Is Nationwide. Here's A Map. Huffington Post 12/10/2015 At least 120 Boston College students who ate at a local Chipotle last weekend have been sickened in an outbreak of the highly contagious norovirus, the most common cause of food-related disease outbreaks in the U.S. It was already a tough year for the fast-casual burrito chain. At last count, 52 people across nine states have also been sickened by a separate Chipotle-connected outbreak of E. coli. This illness, distinct from norovirus, is caused by consuming food contaminated with E. coli bacteria, leading to symptoms that include diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, according to the Mayo Clinic. In addition to the E. coli and Boston norovirus outbreaks, Chipotle is facing lawsuits from a previous norovirus infection in California and a salmonella outbreak in Minnesota in August that affected at least 64 people... The industrial sabotage conspiracy theory makes more sense than this
Correct. Letting workers to call sick is a Communist superstition. Must be Commie sabotage.

Obviously, you have a sick leave agenda. So if the problem is that Chipotle only allows two sick days per year, how about the other fast food retailers (and other local restaurants)? Do they all have much more generous sick leave policies? Not that I've heard about. CSMonitor: McDonald's wage hike comes with something more: paid time off (+video) 4/2/2015 McD's is offering some paid sick leave, even for part-timers. Apparently, this will happen only at corporate-owned franchises, not at franchisee restaurants. They mention that Jerry Brown in CA signed a bill into law requiring at least 3 days sick leave per year for all businesses. So did the three sick days for 2016 in CA help the CA Chipotles? I don't see it.
