**SOUTH OF THE 10**--The city of Inglewood has reached 311 positive COVID-19 cases on April 29th.
Despite the Los Angeles County Public Health Department’s posting of where some of the cases originated, we do know that construction workers are defying the state mandate of social distancing while performing their “essential” job. Initially there was concern about the construction work being allowed to continue at SoFi Stadium and apparently at the urging of Inglewood Mayor James Butts, who cited the number of Inglewood residents allegedly working on the project. Representatives from Turner-AECOM Hunt were forced to issue a press release stating that their workers were following social distancing guidelines.
At SoFi, social distancing is enforced through measures such as barring gatherings of more than 10 people, limiting access to the personnel hoist, suspending or re-sequencing tasks that “require close contact” and mandating workers keep “six feet of separation between each other,” the project spokesman said.

Inglewood residents have no way to corroborate that the workers are in a safe environment, as they have been threatened with having their cellphones tracked and fired for leaking photos/information to the public. *[(Read the rest.) ](https://2urbangirls.com/are-construction-workers-infecting-inglewood-residents-with-deadly-covid-19-virus/)*
