> there's a biological aspect to a lot of mental health issues in workplaces

how do you explain the same phenomenon occurring in remote workplaces?

I agree there's a biological aspect to it. But it's clearly "contagious" over the internet and thus by human communication, not germs.

Oh well I didn’t say I thought it was mutually exclusive. Germs aren’t the only part of working a shit job. Whether it’s in person, over a video call, or over email, if your supervisor is a dickhead then your team will be unhappy.

I was thinking primarily about people who work indoors, in rooms with poor circulation. I’d wager those people are sicker more often, unwell more often, and obese more often. That’s all I meant.
