This is pretty much par for what course?
I understand doing it for covid-19, but is it par for the course for "flu season"? otherwise, how have you established these practices? You can't be doing it all the time if you're having employees quarantine when they're not working, as you mentioned.

- taylodl 7y agoThink major storms - especially hurricanes and big ice storms. You need people responsible for generation, transmission and distribution in place and sequestered to ensure power is still available to those areas whose distribution circuits haven't been impacted. For the big storms they start moving crews in place, just outside the places likely to suffer the most impacts, before the storm hits so they're ready to go as soon as possible. As far as we're concerned this is just a variation of our storm mode as we call it. We got this.
- fsckboy 7y agoI understand emergency response by responders who are trained, but in this case there isn't a power emergency, the emergency is to protect the people who work the shifts in the power plant from getting each other sick in a pandemic, and off duty too. I'm not saying that there is any incompetence or shortage of can-do, just seems like something that there may not have been much practicing for. I mean, the way you usually go into high gear might be optimum for spreading the virus, for example.
