No. They are essentially throwing vulnerable people under the bus and letting the rest of us in for potential long-term disability.

Essentially, they're trading a strong economy now for many deaths and long-term disability cases over the longer haul.

Anyone forcing you back to the office doesn't care if you live or die or if you bring an infection back to your family, some of whom could be vulnerable. And that's the bottom line of how we should be thinking of execs who try to force the people who work for them into the same building together when it's not needed.
