Coronavirus in the US

I’ve been reading a popular travel forum about “Travel Shaming”. Co-workers are arguing with each other over whether it is irresponsible to travel anywhere near an affected area. The travelers say “it’s inconvenient to change my plans, I’ve been saving for years for this trip, I may not get my money back, my risk is low” and a host of other reasons. Those voting in favor of staying home say ‘you are risking our health if you come back to work too soon, you are risking the health of older people, you are being selfish’.

Travelers provide much needed support to businesses affected by the slowdown.
