Yeah we're going to have to bail out the Airline Industry after this whole ordeal, just like with Automotive and Banks, even if a vaccine is only 4-6 months away in a positive outlook, they'll lose too much.

My work just had a meeting on potentially banning travel and I'm a little irritated with the outcome. We do a lot of travel in general but specifically into and through Seattle (we are sending 3 people there over the next 2 weeks) lately. We're a small company (15 employees) and they've basically said they value money over anything else.
I'm not particularly overly worried about it, given my age and lack of preexisting conditions, but we have a decent amount that are a little older (60+) and have those preexisting conditions. We have the ability to do our jobs remotely instead of in person and I understand the agreements but I think it shows a complete lack of remorse and an attitude of "it won't happen to us." I like travel and I enjoy getting out of the office but it's just bothering me a little that it feels like they're not taking this seriously. Maybe I'm not considering all the things that they are considering, which is entirely possible, but it's just bothering me. |

My direct supervisor (this wasn't his decision) is going to Seattle today, in like 25 minutes actually. And I know it isn't a given that he or any of us will get it, but it just makes me shake my head. |

How have the number of confirmed cases been going over the past few days in the US?
(I'd prefer to see numbers that don't include the cruise ship ppl, if possible) |

That seems like a pretty steady incline, but I'm not seeing the "doubling" rates that people were discussing previously.
