Kojima Productions COVID-19 statement:
Kojima Productions has learned today that an employee working at the studio has tested positive for COVID-19. The employee has been at home from March 20th and as such has not entered the office since then. During that time, the employee underwent a PCR test, which returned a positive result today.
We are working closely with public health authorities and they have informed us that since this employee was not in the office at the time of symptoms onset, all other Kojima Productions employees are not considered “close contacts”, meaning that it is not mandatory to close the office.
However, we at Kojima Productions have independently decided to enact the following precautions to safeguard the health and well-being of all our employees as well as the broader community.
Temporarily close the office floor
Sanitize all office facilities
All working staff will now work remotely
Supervise and support for the health condition of all staff
Kojima Productions will continue working closely with our public health authorities and enact additional precautions as necessary to prevent further spread in any way possible.
Unfortunately, I feel they may have already spread the Coronavirus and may still spread the virus because the virus can travel through the air, and the virus can stay alive on hard surfaces like plastic for many days.
