Open workspaces, where everyone can cough and spit on each other, not to mention noise and lack of privacy/distraction, are gone forever.
I worked from home for many years, by the way, and wouldn't do it any other way.
In a year you will see how wrong you were.

Update: We have received numerous calls and emails from people around the country who want to see instructions for making the N95 replacement mask designed by University Health System’s chief nurse executive Tommye Austin.

We are sharing this design with the understanding it should only be used for non-commercial purposes, and we cannot guarantee that others using this design will have a mask as effective as the one created by Austin. Here’s how she sourced special materials, developed her design and verified her mask’s effectiveness.

4/17/2020

For the past month University Health System’s Tommye Austin, senior vice president and chief nurse executive, has kept a pair of scissors and small stacks of fabric samples next to her desk. They’re among the tools she has used to design a highly effective mask that will be available to protect healthcare employees if San Antonio sees a flood of COVID-19 patients.

“I just want my staff to be safe and I want anyone who is taking care of these patients to be safe,” said Austin as she explained why she began designing a replacement for the N95 masks traditionally worn by medical teams treating contagious patients.

Yours must be very sensitive. I had no issue with it. Probably false positive. I just checked with virustotal.com and no virus.

it's not n95 if it doesn't fit tightly around your face, even if you use n99 a/c filters.

What is it about COVID-19 that they don't want us to know?

WASHINGTON — A spokesman for a key House panel said Friday that the White House has blocked Dr. Anthony Fauci from testifying next week at a hearing on the coronavirus outbreak.

House Appropriations Committee spokesman Evan Hollander said the panel sought Fauci — the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases — as a witness for a subcommittee hearing on the government’s response to the pandemic, but was denied. Hollander said the panel was informed by an administration official that Fauci’s testimony was blocked by the White House.

He wouldn’t identify who informed the committee that Fauci would not appear.
