the office, but the building is not “open” to the extent it was before the holiday break. People are getting tested as they think they might have been or have been exposed – or if they have some symptoms, As we know, not everything is COVID, though I am routinely
hearing from professional contacts that they are recovering from COVID. Just about all water meetings have gone back to virtual. Some never stopped being virtual.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo7">We have had very little reported sick time other than for routine doctor’s appointments, etc. I hope it stays that way!<o:p></o:p></li></ol>

Since they were over the break
and did not miss work, I would say it had no impact on “business”. That is roughly 25% of the people in the office. I don’t know if you would consider that “a lot” but it had little to no impact on operations.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">I have a couple of people out right now who don’t feel well but have not tested positive yet. I would consider this as quarantining as I have asked them not to come into the office
until they feel OK and/or test negative. I would not call this a “lot”.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
