Amazon reached a “first-of-its-kind” settlement with California’s attorney general on Monday over claims it concealed COVID-19 case numbers from workers and local health agencies.

The online retail giant left workers “in the dark” and unable to track the spread of COVID-19 throughout the pandemic, while failing to adequately notify warehouse workers and local health agencies of the number of cases, the state’s Attorney General Rob Bonta said in a statement.
