Grupo Modelo, which produces and exports Corona beer, will be suspending production after breweries were deemed non-essential by the Mexican government.

The company confirmed the move in a news release on Twitter this week and said it will be fully committed to stopping the spread of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus, a type of novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19.
