This makes sense, but only to a point.

Keep in mind that you cannot actually tell when people are sick. Some people will be sneezing or sounding sick from seasonal allergies. Some people will have influenza or other illnesses and will be asymptomatic – you won’t be able to tell that they are communicably ill, but they are. Any reaction you have (positive or negative) towards people has to take into account that you will never really know how sick or risky they are or are not.

So you're saying that I should kick them all out?

 

There are no seasonal allergies in most of the country right now, certainly not here in Ohio where the snow has blanketed everything.

So if someone is hacking, 99% sure they’re sick. Kick em to the kerb

Come on down to Texas. We'll be happy to show you seasonal allergies that go on year round.

 

Man, Is some so worried maybe not going online is the better answer.

 

I couldn't care less. I literally had two people with the sniffles and a few coughs in the car this morning. I didn't think twice about it.

Making up numbers but really -

the chance it's the common cold: ~70%
the chance it's the flu: ~15%
the chance it's some sort of allergy: ~15%
the chance it's coronavirus: <0.01%

And, even if you get coronavirus - assuming you're not a baby or some old fogey with an immunodeficiency disease, your chance of death is extremely low.

My biggest concern, if I got it, would be passing it to someone who isn't in good health. But otherwise, you could pay me as little as $500 for someone with it to sneeze in my face. This isn't HIV or hepatitis people. It's a virus with effects similar to the flu and just as easy for a healthy persons body to fight.

Uber should let the driver charge a $500 corona virus fee to the paxhole that gives it to us.

 

I am struggling through with my sinuses..... first winter in Michigan and all.

 

Another dumb AF Thread. My god the spazzers are a having a field day with this “flu”. Unless you have a ongoing respiratory issue you are fine.

”she threw the tissue at me“. Was it a fastball or curve ? Lmao threw at it me......🙄

She tossed it back to me. You don't see that as gross? I guess you're used to sick strangers handing you their condoms after you're done servicing them.

I really also believe this paranoia over the coronavirus is hysterical, at best. If someone has this, they won't be ordering an Uber from you. By the time it has been determined, the individual with be in quarantine for a definite period of time. Uber will be the furthest thing from their mind.

You won't know they're infected until it's too late.

I think panic is totally the wrong approach. But you are not correct at all about what sick people do when they get sick. Some people really do travel freely before they go to a hospital or get quarantined.

People with serious infectious illnesses may not know they are carrying a disease at first. They will order Ubers, go to work, get their car fixed, go shopping, go out for drinks, whatever. Later they will mostly not go out in public, but for a time they almost certainly will. Have you traveled on mass transit in a big city or flown internationally? Sick people travel anyway. You can hear them coughing or easily catch what they have. Usually it's a cold but sometimes it's something worse. It's one of the main risks of global epidemics in population centers and airports. People travel while sick way too often.

This isn't about coronavirus in particular. All sorts of illnesses, harmless or deadly, have spread through people unwittingly or even knowingly traveling while sick.

 

If a pax threw any used tissue at me I'd be pissed. Even if they left it in the car or stuffed it in the door pocket. Not because I was concerned about getting sick but just because it's gross and disrespectful.

 

I’ve had a hay fever attack for weeks. Sinus hell. I cough n u kick me out? Yeah, that would not be the end of it. 🤔

I will be sure to not drive rideshare in China. Problem solved

 

Good way to get deactivated


Kicking out of your pax based on assumption. Ants take anyone...

Then
Quitting driving until this is over seems to be the Only Alternative.
To avoid DEACTIVATION by Uber.
To Avoid DEACTIVATION by Nature . . .

 

The ant mentality is how the cooperation known as uber wanted you to behave.

 

Who tf throws a tissue at someone after they use it? She sounds like a psychopath.

 

I posted this 3 days ago. Min 16,000 deaths from Flu this flu season.....

US Corono Virus Deaths so far: 0 ..... although I did read that one case in N.CA is in serious condition. Might end up being the first death in the US. Most cases in the US were from that cruise ship in Japan (are those technically US cases?).

Week later the predictions.... add another 2,000 deaths min to 5,000 deaths max.

How weak are some of you drivers? There’s worse diseases in hospitals yet nurses and doctors work there everyday. Why don’t you ask a cab driver about driving in past epidemics for some perspective on your fragile life

 

Don't even let them in. Cancel for safety reasons and drive off. The company won't be paying your hospital bills if you get sick. It's your butt out there.

 

I gave one lady tissues, she wiped the snot off her face and threw the tissues back at me! I told her to get out. Ride over!

Yup! That'll do it.

So disgusting. Why would she throw it back in your face? So nasty &#129326;. It's as disrespectful as spitting in someone's face &#129318;‍♀

&#128029;

 

Well not in my face - but still!
She just didn't want to keep them so she thought I should throw them away for her. Self-entitled brat!

 

Just got this notification

If a pax threw anything except a bare ass breast at me, insta kick.

And cash. No coins. That's rude.
