I find it puzzling how experts can disagree so profoundly about what seem to be relatively simple issues

Please reference where you learned that the entirety of the Smithfield workers were tested. You are the first I have heard of that, and no article I read seems to indicate that "fact". What I do have are 3 different sources indicating that being asymptomatic happens in a MAJORITY of COVID-19 cases. This topic presented the third source.

• Iceland random sampling of population.
• U.S. Aircraft Carrier entire crew testing.
• Four fifths of cases are asymptomatic, China figures indicate

I would find it fascinating if the pork plant workers are sicker than the average population. Being asymptomatic may be tied into age or other demographic factors.

I didn't say they were -- just that hundreds of symptomatic people in a plant with 3,700 workers is pretty high.
