I noticed that in crime novels from before the pandemic, people already thought it was normal to go to work sick.
The only reason why coworkers in those novels thought that the sick person should go home, was because they were useless being sick, not because it would infect the rest of the team

It was a really clever strategy from governments to say "it is like the flu now", because they knew people would still come to work with the flu and they would not skip restaurant dinners with the flu.
