To this day, it is something that no longer surprises anyone, the coronavirus has already affected several video game companies, forcing them to treat their employees differently, as in the case of Nintendo of America. The same problem has arisen in the Capcom headquarters located in Osaka / Japan, where the Capcom coordinators have confirmed that one of the workers at the facilities has tested COVID-19 positive.
Considering that the virus is highly contagious in closed environments, they have communicated the measures they are taking through the Capcom Japan official site. Here they indicate that they are investigating more cases inspecting people who worked nearby or had contact with the infected, and they are also sending all these employees home after the previous checkup to prevent the disease from spreading.
Going forward, we will continue to take the necessary steps in cooperation with relevant parties, with the highest priority given to preventing the spread of infection within and outside the company and the safety of employees, business partners and associated companies.
However, Capcom has also considered the safety of its healthy employees, and has been responsible for disinfect the office where it was located
