Workers have escaped from a Chinese iPhone factory after a COVID outbreak sent them into isolation.

Around 10 people were seen jumping a fence at Apple’s largest assembly plant in Zhengzhou city.

While it isn’t clear how many cases were reported in the factory, the city itself has reported over 160 local cases last week.

The city is home to 10 million people, but it was partially locked down as case numbers continue to climb.

Of course, this is all part of China’s strict COVID-zero policy, which is plaguing businesses and the local population.

The factory is owned by the Taiwan-based company, Foxconn.

It acts as a supplier to Apple and has hundreds and thousands of workers at the site.
