I mean, the violations should result in some form of shutting down the facility until it's resolved.
Without consequences, all those inspections do nothing

As mentioned in TFA, the Boars Head Virginia plant has been shut down since the inspection issues in July.
It's crazy there aren't at least annual inspections of food production facilities which would have unearthed the disgusting lack of care sooner. They market themselves as a premium brand, which makes this look even worse.
I mean a month shutdown isn't much of a punishment. They'll go back online, run their staff over capacity, and neglect cleaning and maintenance all over again.
I was a customer, regularly buying several different products including lunch meats and I think I actually did get sick from the lunch meat back around when the recalls were announced.
Never again.

They inspect you more often when there's been problems recently. Might be a year or two before the inspections to back to annual.
At least that's what our inspectors do - if there's something bad, they'll check up on it later.
Considering this report, why only this facility?
