Variety reports that NBC Universal revealed today that a crew member who last worked on the CBS drama on Wednesday, March 11, tested positive yesterday for coronavirus, adding that some crew members were upset they weren't informed earlier. Production shut down on the FBI spinoff on March 12. “We consulted with medical experts who have informed us that the risk level of transmission is low given that the employee did not return to work after becoming symptomatic,” reads the Universal Television memo. “Even with low risk assessment, out of an abundance of caution, we took the step of identifying and reaching out to the handful of employees who had been in close proximity to the affected individual on their last day at the office.” ALSO: FBI: Most Wanted director Lexi Alexander is "furious" she wasn't told about the positive test earlier.
