It's all coming into focus now-- you just want to work from home and can't until she says the magic words!

(Kidding)
Lol if I were at a place that were taking this seriously and was actively taking the steps to make sure their employees were being safe, then I would feel a lot more comfortable here. It's the complete opposite.

Two people are out sick today, one of them missed yesterday as well, and both of them were absolutely hacking at their desk. My employers were talking and said if they feel better they can come to work.

Most of the people here could work from home if allowed, but no one is being allowed due to sheer ignorance of this situation.[/QUOTE]

I can tell by the number of post you have in this thread that you are getting a lot done being at work!

(kidding, again)

The gray area around businesses and a stay at home order is interesting.

My company won’t officially close our office until we get an official order, but they have actively encouraged work from home, and everyone in our office has been at home the past 1.5 - 2 weeks. But another one of our offices here in state has more of that old school mentality, and plenty of people in that office won’t go home until they’re forced to.

Does anyone know why Reynolds has that Sarah lady up there at the press conferences when it’s clear she doesn’t know anything. How about have the actually epidemiologist up there answering questions.

Yeah if you look at Sarah's qualifications, it doesn't appear she should be the one explaining these types of specifics to the public.

You know the answer but I am not going to be the one to say it.

a lot more cases. 73 new. Lots in Linn county. If most of those are in a nursing homes, the deaths are going to go up.
Another death was added too, as well as 10 more hospitalized.

How many of the Linn county cases are going to the U of I hospital? Some, most, none?

I'd assume they were going to Mercy Medical in downtown Cedar Rapids but I don't know for sure.
