Exposing employees to coronavirus

Pros

Usually they do the right thing, but they failed this time.

Cons

While the entire state is shutting down to prevent spreading of the coronavirus and while every report says if you contain it and quarantine people, you’ll prevent the spread of the virus, our company is making us come in. How are you and how are we supposed to handle being sick with our mediocre vacation time when we have to be quarantined for 2 weeks minimum? Please rethink this policy for the safety of your workforce and everyone else. Follow CDC guidelines and state’s recommendation.
