Our office has had three covid positive tests in a week. One young guy has had symptoms, fever and aching but is on the mend. Three people is out of a staff of about 10 is quite a lot. Everyone else has had two tests since and all negative. People are going in to the office less and less.
I haven't been to my companies office since early October. I'm in the fortunate situation that I have an office space close to home but outside our apartment (which frankly is too small to efficiently work from home with two kids around) which we've been renting since 2018 because a) my partner is self-employed, b) I had the ability to work from home 1-2 days a week even before the pandemic, and 3) kids, which turned out to be a very sensible investment. It's a refurbished basement flat 100 metres from home, which we're sharing with two other people but we have a separate room to ourselves. So I'm not technically working from home-home as in isolating from all non-household members, but I figure a separate room a short walk from home, and two other people I may run across on the way to the toilet or to fetch some water, is still way better than a 40 minute ride on public transport twice a day to an office with 10 other people.
