For me this boils down to what I was saying at the time (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23130220), that we hear a lot about what Elon Musk thinks about whether the factory is safe, and what the county thinks, but I wonder what the workers think. Looks like this journalist finally got some info.

(The other issue I was wondering is: if Elon is so confident that everything is safe, would he be willing to provide an undergirding guarantee for treatment and compensation if someone does catch Covid? I doubt it because he is big on parsing 'deaths from Covid' vs 'deaths with Covid'.)

Why do workers have to speak “anonymously for fear of retaliation”? What kind of company is this?

So in the rush to open the plant, Musk might have caused greater delays?
