NS rules about the coronal virus

So who or where will be the first person dumb enough to walk in to their supervisors office and announce they have the Corona virus? You get instantly pulled out of service and forced to be off wo pay on FMLA.

Very true, People are recovering but we’re only now starting to hear what the long term effects are on people who have recovered.. most are reporting a 20 to 30 % loss of lung function... Pretty scary stuff, I’d prefer to not get it in the first place

some simple math for all of you. what is 3% of 10,000? Keep in mind less than that is who have died of the confirmed. more have recovered than confirmed. 50% of the confirmed live in 2 states and are over 60 years of age!

Your using an incomplete study with the numbers changing every second. H1N1 All that initial data had a high mortality rate until a Scientific study! NOT CNN or FOX study. listen to you healthcare provider and wash your hands don’t cough directly into someone’s mouth or pick your nose. You have 3 holes in your head this thing can enter.! Keep them clean.

You need to look to historical facts. This is nothing and will be but a footnote in history. 10 times? fuzzy math. Look it up how many died under Obama?? How many contracted and how many hospitalized? All that and he left they system and CDC in disarray for Trump to clean up and fix in less than a month.

Wrong. Its highly contagious, and has a mortality rate 10 times that of the flu. And if you think because you are young your o.k. new research shows its mortality rate among young people is alarming.

  1. 99 % of you won’t even get the virus. What are you worried about and it’s a minor nuisance to most and no more contagious than influenza.

You think NS would pay you for 2 weeks at home...? Yeah riiiiggghttt!! Even if the government told them to they wouldn’t until they got sued over it, that’s how they roll!

"If a doctor tells you to stay home for a couple weeks, couldn't you collect disability? "

The correct answer is "YES". If you have AFLAC, they will also pay if you've been diagnosed with coronavirus and you are told to quarantine.

If the doctor tells you, you are quarantined because a family member has the coronavirus, you are eligible to sign up for unemployment compensation benefits.

Anyone know any details about the bill Trump passed, everyone gets 2 weeks sick pay if you get the new virus. Just wondering if NS has made any comments about it.

You still must sign up and be approved for FMLA. They won't just give it to you.
