A company in Tuolumne County is building machines that will help in the global battle against COVID-19 and looking to hire more local people with mechanical expertise.
Ted Meigs, president and co-founder of Kinematic Automation near Soulsbyville, said he was recently contacted by Hologic Inc., a longtime business partner, to fast track the production of a machine that will be used in the manufacturing process for new coronavirus test kits.
