From late April:

58 percent of workers at Tyson meat factory in Iowa test positive for coronavirus
An Iowa Public Health Department report showed that more than 700 workers contracted the virus at a meat plant in Perry.

I would imagine that's not an isolated thing. Even if the meat facilities are up and running they probably aren't running at full capacity.

Sanderson Farms said they have cut capacity at their chicken processing plants due lower demands with schools and restaurants closed.

In southern Ga about 50% of the chicken plants are shut down. The ones open are having covid problems. One has 11 deaths.
