I guess, in their minds, they visualize everyone bustling around like a normal flu season? It just isn't going to be like that. Sure, some will but most thinking people are greatly going to adjust their lives. Lock down or no lock down.
It's would a constant state of panic as clusters are reported in offices, churches, etc.
My office has 1500 people in it as do most of the offices around me. One case, they will close the office, "deep clean" and move to work from home.
I guess, I just don't understand what they visualize. Going back to regular life? I don't see that for a very, very long time barring some sort of breakthrough.
The riot on that bridge in China over workers from this province going to their jobs in the other province tells me things aren’t going back to ‘normal’ in China either right now... virus or no virus.
I used to work in a high rise office building that housed somewhere between 80-100 people per floor.
Now I work in a renovated old building. It has only one floor and has workable windows.
My office layout is one of the reasons that I still feel comfortable going to work every day.
Until this virus clears out, a lot of office buildings are basically germ factories.
They don’t realize that they world they knew was gone basically overnight, and there is at least some chance it’s never coming back.
I don’t blame them for being unable to see it, because everything looks exactly the same, but it’s not the same.
