Remote work

Since many individuals will be unable to go to work during the coronavirus outbreak, some
companies may choose to encourage remote work, if applicable to their line of work. For

Advances in virology
Coronavirus is sure to result in numerous advances in virology — the study of viruses. The
nature and spread of the virus will prove invaluable information to scientists looking to better
understand how this pathogen — and others like it — can be contained and treated. With any
luck, the coronavirus outbreak will spur the world’s many great minds to find new ways to
manage pandemic situations. An existing example of this is the creation of drive-thru testing
centers, which enable citizens to test themselves for the virus without exposing themselves to a
hospital full of patients.
