Summary
4 Min Read(Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc has started to use thermal cameras at its warehouses to speed up screening for feverish workers who could be infected with the coronavirus, employees told Reuters. This week and last, Amazon set up the hardware for the thermal cameras in at least six warehouses outside Los Angeles and Seattle, where the company is based, according to employees and posts on social media. The company performs a second, forehead thermometer check on anyone flagged by the cameras to determine an exact temperature, one of the workers said.
