Re: Is your ISP Influenza-ready?

So there you have it. They're likely to come to work even though

they're

sick (presuming they don't know it's a lethal virus), where they work and spend all their face-to-face time in close quarters with recirculated air with the rest of the company's engineers.

That recirculated air is likely to be shared with the rest of the buildings inhabitants, not just the engineers. On the other hand, engineers tend to have already perfected the art of working remotely. Continuity planning people are likely to notice that skilled technical people are essential to smooth operations and will kick them out of the office before anyone gets sick. --Michael Dillon
