First confirmed cases in Flight Ops per company comms. Inflight too. Trying to contact those who worked with them. Can you imagine anyone more exposed than we are right now?

Also, Jim Graham is a genius.
This must be SkyHub? There is nothing in my Delta email.

How is JG a genius?

For leaving I imagine.

Seems the numbers must be off somewhere.
There are probably a lot more than 14,500 people infected right now. No one really knows. Most either think they have a cold or are asymptomatic.

Yes and yes.

Lots or "suspected" cases out there that aren't included in those numbers. I have a close friend and neighbor who is a public service employee and was expected to continue going to work well past the point of reason. Now she is very symptomatic to the point that she has been labeled "suspected" and prescribed meds but since she is young and healthy, she won't be tested and confirmed unless she requires medical intervention. Makes you wonder how many are truly out there.
And now I'm wishing I hadn't had dinner and drinks with her on Saturday...😅

You are spot on. Just the amount of high profile persons that have been diagnosed tells you that is much more prevalent than the numbers would indicate. That is good in the sense that a larger majority aren’t really having any issues, but bad in that may be more likely to get to that person with underlying conditions.
Delta pilots have tested positive. Pilots that flew with them have are only getting paid 2 week quarantine if they show any symptoms. If you flew with a positive or suspected positive pilot, but have no symptoms you can drop your trips, but it will be entered as a PD. No pay. Getting a test is nearly impossible, even with mild symptoms in most states. If you want to get paid after exposure in close quarters of the flight deck but have no symptoms, you need to find a way to be ordered to quarantine by state officials or doctors.

I thought they just changed that policy per a flightops communique somewhere

The daily reports from WHO are pretty interesting reads. As of today, there are only 7087 cases in the USA. I do agree though that not all cases are being reported, especially those in the "healthy" age group. Which again I'm not sure who that really is any more, just had a friend who is 38, healthy, get put on life support.
