- General Motors runs the facilities as a joint venture with Chinese state-owned automaker SAIC Motor Corp.
- Reuters noted that the auto giant has resorted to such measures to keep its production uninterrupted as China has lockdown several of its cities and production hubs following a surge in COVID-19 cases.
- Price Action: GM shares are trading higher by 0.72% at $44.54 in premarket on the last check Tuesday.
