I just hope employers and etc. understand the tardiness this will be causing. I don t use ecat, but I m sure some people use ecat to go to work and for appointments.

Very likely, that one came in contact with many of the others, which would be why they are in quarantine. The alternative is to have exposed and possibly infectious drivers meeting with many people on their way to work and exposing them. They then expose everyone at work and their families. A certain percentage of those exposed will die. Others may be sick for months. Does trying to protect other people seem unreasonable? David for better consequences REGARDING:

We have one employee out of 100+- test positive and we slow down this whole heavily subsidized operation. If walmart and publix used this logic, we would not be able to buy groceries. But we could take this opportunity to protect the employees of this tax sucking operation from any chance of catching covid and shut this whole operation down. How much sense does this make?
