Unions got involved after some crew members tested positive for COVID on the set of Amazon's 'Expats,' raising questions about safety protocols.
“Crews are still highly concerned,” said Patric Abaravich, business representative for IATSE Local 871, whose members include production coordinators and script supervisors. “People are just tired.”
However, some of the cast and crew on “Expats,” who declined to comment publicly for fear of reprisals, questioned whether producers were following the rules after an outbreak on their set. That prompted some on set to ask if they had been exposed to someone with the virus. In response to questions, some were told by the production that three people had tested positive and that their close contacts had been notified, according to emails reviewed by the Times. Two members of the cast and crew said they were annoyed that they were told only after asking.
The entire cast and crew were notified Monday that three people had tested positive for COVID-19 and that all close contacts had been advised to take precautions.
