I found the headline misleading - Uber didn't permanently block the drivers, it temporarily suspended them from driving. Uber also temporarily suspended all the people who had been in the car that day. They also notified all these folks and sent them info on health providers. That actually sounds pretty prudent and helpful to me. If I were one of those 240 passengers, I'd be a little upset to find out I'd been in a car after someone carrying the virus, but grateful to know I'd been exposed. Then if I started getting symptoms, instead of thinking "well, there's no corona virus in Mexico, it's a cold, I'll just sleep it off," I'd go in for treatment right away. I realize it sucks for the drivers who are counting on driving income, but WOW is an Uber driver an effective patient-zero, just two cars exposed meant 240 people exposed! Can you imagine if Uber didn't intervene after it knew about the exposure? Future headline: thousands infected in Mexico after Uber fails to quarantine exposed drivers.
