  7. Returning to work after COVID-19

    22/02/2021

    Returning to work after COVID-19

    If there is one piece of good news about the COVID-19 Pandemic its that more people recover from COVID-19 than die from it. In the state of California, so far, 40,000 people have died from COVID-19. But that's out of more than 3 million diagnosed cases. Those people who recover, and quarantine...eventually return to work. That got me thinking - what kind of reception are they receiving in the workplace? The DeLeons have both experienced COVID-19 and both returned to work. That is where the similarities end.   Special thanks to Angel & Ray DeLeon from Palmdale, CA for their story. Check out Angel's crafts here. - - - More information on my work at ChristopherJBeale.com. To support me with a monthly gift, check out the No Midnight Media Patreon.
