Keep getting reports of companies refusing employees the right to work from home during this pandemic. It's absolutely atrocious, and I can't sit quiet on them. So email your story to corona-reports@hey.com and include Rabid49 in the subject. I will update
Can't promise to post all reports. And please only email me if you're interested in having your report published. Also, any leaks of internal communications are welcome and will be included in the reports.
Offer to any company that is reported stands as well. Email the same address with evidence that you're letting everyone who can work from home do so, and I will post updates in that thread as well.
Undoubtedly there will be some reports where employees feel like one thing is being said and executives feel like another thing is being said. The onus is on executives to be CRYSTAL FUCKING CLEAR.
Also, if you'd be so kind as to indicate in your report whether I can put you in contact with an investigative reporter, that would be ace ✌️❤️

This update from @bigcommerce is atrocious. Equating WFH with "shutting down" is 🤯. (From theamericangenius.com/business-news/…)
Jesus, @GoDaddy, what the fuck are you doing? (Also via theamericangenius.com/business-news/…).
If you need gloves and masks to WORK AT YOUR DESK, the work environment is not safe. Send people home for fucks sake.

Microsoft has been exemplary in handling the corona response. Quickly moved to send everyone home, cancel travel, render their campus a ghost town, and commit to paying hourly workers. BRAVO! Now, where the fuck is Apple on this? nytimes.com/2020/03/15/tec…
I sure hope Apple isn't filling up that giant saucer in Cupertino with people working in front of computers tomorrow. Maybe they just didn't announce their WFH move yet?
“In all of our offices, we are moving to flexible work arrangements worldwide outside of Greater China. That means team members should work remotely if their job allows”, hopefully that means Cupertino = ghost town too. apple.com/newsroom/2020/…

Do you know of a tech company that’s asking people who could work from home to come to the office? Reply to this thread, so we can track these irresponsible organizations, and remember their names even after this is over.
If you’re afraid of naming your own company, I’ve opened my DMs for a little while FOR THIS PURPOSE ONLY. And I’ll update the thread with any claims presented in those DMs.
Apparently @spacex is asking people who could work from home to still come to the office. Hey, @elonmusk, working from home during a pandemic when you can is not “stupid”. It’s the responsible thing to do. Please protect your workers and their families 🙏❤️

I've been asked to do a post on how to manage anxiety and other mental health symptoms that may be popping up or exacerbated by the #pandemic. As a psychiatrist I can't help manage ventilators or relieve our tired ER physicians so hopefully this is a small way I can be helpful:
1. News and social media can be a vital source of information updates but there's a fine line between being informed and getting overwhelmed by (mis)information. Bombarding yourself like that is a surefire way to worsen anxiety; try to unplug and disconnect for a few hours a day
2. Exercise is a powerful stress buster and mood booster - it literally grows new brain cells! Your gym may be closed so get creative about other ways to move your body. Find some exercises on YouTube or dig out an old workout DVD.

If only those who have returned from #Corona affected countries be a bit more sensible and just self-quarantine themselves for sometime, other people doesn't have to fear and stop what they do or roam freely. Please do that for greater public good and safety.
Exactly what I was talking about irresponsibility and insensitivity by some people. You're putting other lives at serious risk.
On popular request, I am compiling things to do on a self-quarantine. Note that these are primarily based on my own experience and what I have heard from many. This doesn't have any medical validation. Use at your own risk. But I am hoping that it will help many.
Here follows:

A really heartbreaking sight. The sacrifices from health workers in China have been immense.
This is the context of that video, reportedly related to the death of hospital director Liu Zhiming.
This is making the rounds, claiming to be Chinese escaping the country into Vietnam. I'm almost certain that it is misrepresented, and that this is not true.

If containment fails, and this projection comes true, the hardships that the world would experience during the onset of the first coronavirus pandemic would be hard to comprehended through our current eyes. A first for the modern world.
That’s further out, but if COVID-19 does break through to influenza scale, the benefit would be in a substantial population of immunity & antibodies. Those prospects are now where China is focusing. Antibody donation could improve outcomes; that’s moving from secondary priority.
The best outcome of a worst case scenario would be herd immunity. But, millions would die, medical infrastructure would be overwhelmed at even a fraction of the early generational spread, & the world would be on pause. Transfusion is not the golden ticket; you need a lot of infra

Unsurprisingly, more information was withheld by the Chinese government. COVID-19 had reached Guangdong by January 4th. Wuhan's lockdown only began on the 23rd. This is a probelm far bigger than Hubei and China.
Alternate reality: Theranos Ends Pandemic
It's so sad to read these stories of China's state of unrest. Trust is degraded. This is not a society that will return to normal with a snap of fingers and bans lifted. China is damaged, could be for years, & we're not even near the end of this epidemic.
