Rick Douglas, who works in public relations

for KMMG confirmed the cases on

Tuesday. Douglas said KMMG informed

team members of the cases Monday.

Kia announced on March 24 that it

would shut down production March 30,

with a plan to reopen on April 13. Douglas

said right now that schedule has not

changed.

Douglas said KMMG is in contact with

the team members who have COVID-19,

but the company cannot release details on

how they’re doing.

KMMG had previously announced, on

March 20, that five employees had gone

into self-quarantine after potential exposure

to the virus.
