As fears of the global pandemic grow,
prepare to support your office from anywhere.
As of March 16, 2020, COVID-19, a strain of coronavirus, has already killed more than 6,705 people and infected 174,780+ in 155 countries, according to Johns Hopkins. In just 48 hours, it’s up to 8,732 dead and 214,890+ infected in 156 countries. The virus, which originated in Wuhan, China, is disrupting businesses, schools, conferences and everyday life across the world. More precautions are being taken, including a push for more people to work remotely while health organizations work to treat and contain the virus.
Now that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has closed schools and many businesses, citizens are enacting contingency plans and working from home.
