The cumulative count for positive COVID cases at all our work sites is now 461, with 414 recovered. That means there are 47 current cases overall. Since the communication email does not break down all the numbers by location, I don’t know how many people are testing positive at my worksite, which has over 5,000 people. I know the positive case count was pretty flat for several months but spiked up again in correlation to the overall trend in California. A couple of coworkers said that people have been coming back onsite more regularly but they will think about staying home more often again.
On a side note, the carpool sticker on my electric car expires in a month and I don’t believe I can renew it anymore. I was thinking of buying a new Tesla Model Y so I can get the sticker again, but now it looks like I’ll be working from home until an effective COVID vaccine is widely available. I’m guessing it will be another 6-12 months, and I can’t plan that far ahead. I’ll keep the old Tesla for now since it still drives fine; I just can’t use the carpool lane by myself anymore starting in 2021.
