FIRST, NO STUPID COMMENTS FROM HOME OFFICE ABOUT HOW LAZY FIELD REPS ARE. We aren't lazy. I think we all want to do our jobs. It would be better than endless conference calls that managers (some) are asking their reps to participate with in order to make themselves look good to their managers. I just don't know how realistically speaking we can go back April 17. The State I'm in has more cases than most. I a fearful of getting this virus if they put us back in the field early. I don't want my family to get it if I am calling on offices whereby there are many patients with it. Are they planning on phasing in one state at a time or one area at a time? Again, TO don't call field reps lazy. We aren't. We just don't want making our loved ones sick or ourselves sick.
That’s a good question. The more relevant is “when will offices/hospitals let us back in?” It maybe months.
govt just announced in Sunday that social distancing rules to be in place through April 30. So, May 1st at the earliest for us. https://www.npr.org/2020/03/29/821976925/coronavirus-cases-soar-across-the-u-s-and-officials-say-worse-is-yet-to-come
The timelines that companies are putting out lately are useless at this point. I would definitely prefer to be in the field but the media will control this in so many ways. Offices will react to both the media and what they are seeing everyday. Which means even if we hit the field in a few weeks it will be pointless if the media is reporting Armageddon and the offices are not seeing reps.
Yep. Very lame! Back to normal by Easter! Oops, now April 30! January 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China.

They know very much. In fact, we’re very close to a vaccine.” February 26: “The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.” February 26: “We're going very substantially down, not up.” February 27: “One day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.” February 28: “We're ordering a lot of supplies. We're ordering a lot of, uh, elements that frankly we wouldn't be ordering unless it was something like this. But we're ordering a lot of different elements of medical.” March 2: “You take a solid flu vaccine, you don't think that could have an impact, or much of an impact, on corona?” March 2: “A lot of things are happening, a lot of very exciting things are happening and they’re happening very rapidly.” March 4: “If we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work — some of them go to work, but they get better.” March 5: “I NEVER said people that are feeling sick should go to work.” March 5: “The United States… has, as of now, only 129 cases… and 11 deaths.

They’re there. And the tests are beautiful…. the tests are all perfect like the letter was perfect. The transcription was perfect. Right? This was not as perfect as that but pretty good.” March 6: “I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it… Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.” March 6: “When I was hearing the amount of people that died with the flu, I was shocked to hear it… I would have said, ‘Does anybody die of the flu?’ I didn't know people died from the flu.” (His grandfather died of THE FLU!)
