Our nation's food supply chain to grocery stores is starting to break down due to the coronavirus, the New American website reports today (April 28, 2020).

Tyson said the prospect of closing down pork, beef, and chicken plants because of the coronavirus has made the U.S. supply chain "vulnerable."
