It said they traveled to Massachusetts.

If you go to the travel forum you would get it. No matter how many times and ways people have said not to go on the trip in question, inevitably someone else pipes up with the same question but thinks is so different because of the destination.

All travel is risky right now so unnecessary travel should be out right? Nope. People just want to keep believing NBD or someone else's problem.

I mean now we’ve reached the point where staying here is also risky so you might as well travel right?

That's an excuse for "I want to go" Planes and airports are germ-vectors.

Not the pp you replied to. There is no “excuse”. They can do what they want so long as there is no MANDATORY quarantine. We probably won’t have one in the US at all so why shouldn’t they do what they want? It’s optional.

It is. And the CDC is asking it to stop. We will now know the selfish people.

My guess is this is related to the bioconference.

Are you self-quarantining? Because if not, we could probably find some activities in your normal routine that could be qualified as selfish too.

Does this mean that the dorms will be closed as well?

I'm practicing social distancing, and staying at home as much as possible. My dh's workplace has cancelled all business travel after the Biogen news.

Based on the location and dates of travel, I would say one of them was at the Biogen Conference.
