How's UPS protecting its employees from the coronavirus threat?

[Box_Troll]

I guess it's all about marketing and name recognition (we should be calling this thing what it is, the bat flu)... what's happening today is a self-inflicted disaster. It seems as though most of the country has become histrionic.

There's been between 22000 and 52000 deaths in THIS country just since September of 2019 from influenza! Less than 100 from the COVID-19 or the bat flu. We should be flattening the curve but on what?

Preliminary In-Season 2019-2020 Flu Burden Estimates

For starters, there is no vaccine for coronavirus and it could take many months or years to get one to market, and, unlike the influenza viruses for which there are several vaccines, humans have not built up an immunity over multiple generations. What’s worse, doctors fear the virus will mutate.

Seasonal flu has a fatality rate of less than 1%. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases on Capitol Hill, estimates that the fatality rate of flu is closer to 0.1%. But even accounting for the mild, yet undiagnosed cases of COVID-19, it would still make it “roughly 10 times more lethal than the seasonal flu.”

They are not saying anything in south Florida as of today.

What's to protect? Just like any other flu. Use commercial release and gloves if you are really worried. Other than that, use regular precautions like hand.washing.

Are you including the Washington nursing homes in that number? That really changes things. Bunch of cases all in one place.

You know that UPS does not care about you; You know that Trump is not to blame- Bear down, snowflakes.

Fg Trump is entirely to blame for failing to protect the country. And if you really think UPS is the problem...simple solution. QUIT.. no one is begging any of you to stay here.

Lying to the country for his own self interests. People aren’t falling for his after this. Total failure as a president.

He is to blame for his inaction and lying to the country.
Difference is I didn’t expect anything from him, as others here are expecting UPS to “take care of them”. That is not a UPS responsibility. It was the responsibility of our “president”

This looks like something you post when you don’t have an intelligent response.

Oh man, how dare he not know in advance that a highly contagious virus was coming.

He "does nothing" and you cry, he bans travel from Europe, you people whine and moan.

I blame Sanders, for a man who wants a socialist healthcare system he should have known about this in advance

Apparently you've never read the constitution, like our POTUS.

Almost as stupid as someone saying, "if you don't like it, move!"

His travel ban does nothing, when the virus is already here. Our President knew about the virus since the end of 2019.
Hence, the name COVID-19.

“Unfortunately, travel bans sound good,” said Bill Hanage, an epidemiologist at Harvard’s TH Chan School of Public Health. “But we’re way past the point where simply restricting travel is a reasonable response.”

#pale keeps mentioning Sanders and his Socialist healthcare, as if he's POTUS. Bernie isn't even the leading candidate for the nomination. lol....pale is an idiot.
