CBSN
At least 132 employees at SpaceX's California headquarters have tested positive for COVID-19, according to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, marking one of the largest recent outbreaks of the virus among employers in the region.
The rocket maker has more confirmed virus cases than any other private employer in the county since November, according to public health data. Nearly 6,000 people work at SpaceX's facility in Hawthorne California, according to the Los Angeles Times, so the number of infected workers amounts to just over 2% of its workforce at the facility.
SpaceX is one of many companies owned by Tesla founder Elon Musk. The entrepreneur, ranked by Bloomberg as the richest person in the world, made headlines last year for initially resisting getting vaccinated against the disease, saying in a New York Times podcast that "I'm not at risk for COVID, nor are my kids." In November of 2020, Musk said he "most likely" had contracted COVID-19.

Robert Morris, founding pastor of Gateway Church, a megachurch in Southlake, Texas, has been indicted on five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, stemming from alleged incidents dating back to the 1980s, the Oklahoma attorney general's office announced Wednesday. We are aware of the actions being taken by the legal authorities in Oklahoma and are grateful for the work of the justice system in holding abusers accountable for their actions. We continue to pray for Cindy Clemishire and her family, for the members and staff of Gateway Church, and for all of those impacted by this terrible situation.
