A specific cause or case of infection was not cited by People as prompting the shutdown. It could be that production was stopped in order to permit anyone who was exposed to the virus to now isolate and follow the required COVID-19 precautionary measures.

Thursday’s news comes about two weeks after production on The Real Housewives Of Atlanta was halted. In that case, a member of the production team on the show tested positive for COVID-19.

The RHOBH shutdown is the third case of the television franchise being hit by COVID-related work stoppages. In October The Real Housewives Of New York City enforced a partial production shutdown after a crew member contracted the virus.

The work stoppage on RHOBH reflects the current trend on sets across the nation as stricter and more robust protocols have been implemented in an attempt to curtail the deadly virus from transmitting.

Most film and tv sets must enforce social distancing rules, the wearing of face masks, and mandatory testing.
