If Steve’s tech really never went inside and came no closer than 10
feet to anyone, do you think the tech should still quarantine for 14 days?

This is exactly why our company stopped all in person customer
interactions on March 16th.
Customers lie or don’t know they even have it, then your tech gets
infected along with their whole family, then the rest of your crew.
NO ONE SHOULD BE GOING INTO ANYONE ELSES HOUSE FOR A COUPLE MONTHS.
We are only doing service calls if we can fix it from the outside.
Internet is not worth someone dying over!

Im so pissed right now. Tech had a No Line Of Site wednesday.
apparently customer got tested on, positive result today. My guess
would be he was symptomatic wednesday if it was bad enough for a
test the next day. I fin out he was already on quarantine
wednesday, im going to probably lose my stuff. He answered
negative to the questionnaire. The tech has been anal about this
since day one. We went no touch last monday officially. he had no
contact closer than 10 feet. Never went inside. sanitizes
constantly. But we have no choice but to go down a tech for 14 day
quarantine. We are closed tomorrow for a video-conference to
regroup. Tuesday we will probably be sanitizing everything.
there is little to no chance the tech caught it. he is writing
down arrival to exit to help him remember if there is any chance
of contamination.
We have to try to get the health department to give us clear
guidance on company operations over the next 2 weeks.
If this guy lied on the questionnaire ...... Ill probably end up
in jail. We have too much going on to be a man down, much less a
whole company down. If he got my installer sick, and lied on the
questionnaire, kunkgflu will not be his primary concern anymore

The story leaves you both hopeful and pessimistic. He got
some treatments other than what the hospital wanted to
use, but only through extensive intervention from doctor
friends and people who read about him online. He did
recover. Some of the nonstandard treatments may have
worked. But you or I probably wouldn’t have gotten them.
You realize how difficult it is to get something like
remdesivir given the approvals needed. And the push to
intubate rather than have you breathe the virus on
hospital staff, even if it’s maybe not the best
treatment. And how doctors and hospitals were slow to
realize this disease was different.

Because the fda doesnt approve without the trials, to
avoid the liability. It's only approved off label use,
hence, zero liability

It's interesting to me because it's bringing
to light the fact that COVID-19 is apparently
not what people are dying from, it's the
secondary ARDS-like (Accute Respiratory
Distress Syndrome) condition. There is also
some debate within the medical community
whether ventilators are helping or hurting.
Maybe what they need to do is just supply oxygen.
