I agree. It's the incubation time that's offputting. Someone gets infected last week in China then touched something that someone else touches before boarding a plane. That person sneezed and infected more, one of whom may have visited your company on business a week ago or more. How would anyone know? It's a game of telephone, "pass the infection" style.
It is worrisome.

I'm very sorry to hear this. I hope they all get the medical attention they need and that they recover soon.
