This was an interesting brief from NC. If you give it a read I'd like to see what more knowledgable people than me think about their methodology.

Yep, the big thing is people need to stay home when they are sick and otherwise wash their hands. Clearly way too many people don't do either.
That lull over the weekend went away quickly. Still not exponential but locally we had a large bump today.Georgia noon numbers. Cases up 572 from 7:00 last night to 7314 and deaths up 10 to 229. 1332 hospitalized.

Hopefully this changes things regarding company culture. I know my company took a hard line on snow days until 2014 when we all got trapped. After that they started letting us work from home whenever we had a chance of snow. I imagine some companies will do the same now with sickness.Sure why should I get dinged at work with an absentee if I have a moderate cold and can function on the job? Company policy drives why people go to work sick.
NC numbers surge today (this happens every Monday it seems, following little data over the weekend).

Well companies better get to changing that then cause this is why disease spreads so easily.Sure why should I get dinged at work with an absentee if I have a moderate cold and can function on the job? Company policy drives why people go to work sick.
It's not when compared to the previous two days.285 cases is a surge? Seems pretty tame.
Same here..... also prisons not accepting inmates from the local jails (rumor has it prisons are looking at releasing inmates early). I don't know, risking public safety in the name of public safetyThe Florida Supreme Court just extended statewide Covid-19 judicial procedures through the end of May.
It is one of those rare moments when I am at a loss for a measured and (hopefully) reasonable response ... spot on observation in any event ...Same here..... also prisons not accepting inmates from the local jails (rumor has it prisons are looking at releasing inmates early).

I've never understood it. In fact my company issues "kudos" awards and a co worker got one for coming to work sick. This was before this entire situation started to unfold. Now of you are sick in any fashion they send you home.
I never want to go to work sick but the fact is if I've already burned my personal time I get points and if you get to many points you're fired.
