I don’t comprehend all of “risk management” - but it can evolve over time. Say with regard to wearing a mask. A healthcare provider during “normal” times probably rarely wears masks. During flu season I’m guessing a few of them do? I imagine at these facilities with known outbreaks that many of them will be wearing masks all the time at work now?

But same with the tests. You couldn’t test every one with a fever without some other “probable cause” such as travel to China. But I imagine that now anybody with 1 or 2 symptoms that shows up at any of the hospitals in this area of Washington state will get tested for the virus so they can try to track it down, find others that may have been infected, etc. so they can try to reduce the spread of it.

And, if it gets really bad and the virus is widespread, I’m guessing then the tests won’t really matter anymore and they won’t be done except in special instances.
