Nope. But their insurers will settle out of court regardless. God bless America

How exactly would you prove you got it at work? No way they could be held liable

Do people sue their employer every time they catch a cold or the flu?

Ah, my bad. I can’t imagine how something like that would proved, especially if it went to court.

It would be impossible to prove where an employee contracted a virus but yeah, in today’s world I guess nothing is out of the window

With the first cases in LA, I've been wondering, who are the attorneys going to sue?

How long until the attorneys start running ads?

I’m looking for any reason to sue my employer. So it’s worth a shot.

Why, are employers now responsible for microbiology on planet earth?


Sounds like a lawyer looking for a Big class action paycheck.
