AMD start date postponed

I was scheduled to join AMD via h1b transfer(approved) on April 27th but the recruiter postponed the start date to May 18th stating that AMD has "apparently" stopped virtual onboarding and want day 1 to be on site. Can any of the AMD folks help me with what's happening? #interview #career #hardware

This is what your recruiter told you. They are expecting the site to be opened by mid May.

This is what is happening: https://www.amd.com/en/corporate/amd-covid-19-response For the limited number of employees working on-site maintaining our critical business functions, we have implemented additional processes to protect their health and safety. These include health screenings and temperature checks at building entrances, strict social distancing procedures, and adjusting work shifts to reduce density

I'm joining on the same date as well. I wonder if the shelter in place continues till May end, would we still be considered to join on May 18.
