If people really take this outbreak as serious as they do on the internet it's time to channel that anxiety into something productive and call out America's antiquated and inadequate sick leave policies. The news media has people whipped into a frenzy over this but isn't actively pushing for mass quarantines or work releases for non essential employees?

They have an opinion on everything else these days, why not that?
If there is a proper post mortem done over this crisis it will be shown that many of the deaths could have been prevented if not for the failures of several American institutions, practices and thought processes.
