Comcast\u2019s NBCUniversal is postponing its return to office, citing a rise in breakthrough cases of COVID-19. <\/p>\n

According to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported<\/a> the news<\/a>, Comcast chief administration officer Adam Miller broke the news to employees via an internal email. <\/p>\n

\u201cRecent developments, including the rise in regional positivity rates due to variants and breakthrough cases, and guidance from medical experts and authorities have led us to the conclusion that we need to alter our app<\/a>roach,\u201d Miller wrote, adding that fully vaccinated employees can return to the office on a voluntary basis now.<\/p>\n
