Mines are surely problematic like meat packing plans, cold or cool, damp… I saw a study over the weekend how the virus particles can get in the air conditioning and spread around. Mines may have a similar problem.

Poland braces for second wave as virus spikes in coal mines​

WARSAW (Reuters) - Poland’s health ministry expects a resurgence in the number of new coronavirus infections to end after it tests and isolates suspected cases in the southern mining region of Silesia, officials said.

On Saturday the number of new infections rose by 584, its second-highest daily tally since the beginning of the pandemic, followed by another 780 on Sunday and Monday combined, bringing the total number to 43,402.

“We have big outbreaks in Silesia, mainly in three coal mines. This week we’ll test 2,000 mine workers, then the number of new infections should fall to 300 daily next week,” Health Ministry spokesman Wojciech Andrusiewicz said.
