Nurse friend in Seattle got sent home for 14 days because she was exposed to a patient who ended up being positive. She said if there are no symptoms in 7-9 days are clear of danger. Interestingly, they told her to take "comp" days off. She said "no way, I want paid. You are sending me home, I'm not doing this voluntarily". So there is going to be a whole bunch of SHTF stuff come out of this about who gets paid for what. She said staff was working 12-14 hour days before she was sent home. Things are stretching thin.
