Would you call off work due to coronavirus?

Question

I’ve seen many times that pregnant women are now at high risk. My job is still open but they just shortened our hours. Had a customer call me today stating that she is getting tested for coronavirus and is waiting on results. I encountered her on Sunday and she went to get tested today. Women is in her near 60s. 
Btw I am 22 weeks & 6 days. Should I call off work tomorrow?

Answer

Im pregnant..as much as im sure u need to work i would get a note from my doc to be out for a while..not risking it

Answer

I’m 23 weeks and i’m staying home from work. My husband still has to work, he’s an exterminator. It makes me nervous. He’s taking as many precautions as he can though 😕

Answer

Yes you really should! You are high risk

Answer

I work in daycare 10 weeks pregnant,  toddler, and my parents are 70 and my mom just had a major cardiac event. 
I went in and talked to my boss and she put me on per diem so I dont get in trouble with the company if I dont come in for the few weeks.

Answer

I'm going to be 35 weeks and I'm considering starting my maternity leave then. I wanted to work until 39 weeks, but I'm afraid of getting sick or getting others sick.

Answer

I mean .. if I couldn’t afford to not work then.. no. 😬it’s unfortunate but a lot of people NEED to work in order to afford their bills, rent/mortgage, etc. it’s a shitty shitty time. ☹️

Answer

For the people choosing “ Depends” can you explain the reasoning?
