I wonder if lost productivity from sick leave days is offset by preserved productivity of all coworkers that were not infected by people that felt obliged to show up sick with flu or other communicable disease.

We're about to find out! Not to mention all the doctors who'll be getting sick from hordes of people with basic cold and flu piling up in their practices.

Man, Merz truly is a genius! You can tell he's had so much experience in normal jobs, truly understands the average worker's situation.

It's classism. Working class are suspicious. Let's check if they are _not_ lying, wholesale.

What else do you expect from a Blackrock veteran and possible trojan horse?

Heck, I don't even blame him, same how I don't blame a scorpion for stinging the frog, it's just in its nature, I blame the Germans that voted for him. As a democracy, every such national fuckup(and they have a lot of those) is 100% on them and so are the consequences. You reap what you sow.

Well they did have Merkel who did more or less nothing useful for 15 years and dug the hole Germany is in now by kicking the can down they road..

It doesn’t even matter what Merz does or doesn’t do at this point, everything will have disastrous effects on a significant proportion of the population

In Asia people with communicable diseases usually wear masks. They're not obliged to wear them, it's just common courtesy.
