As more New Yorkers contract the coronavirus, the media companies reporting on it are not immune and are having to take serious precautions.
At Condé Nast, which owns Vogue, GQ and The New Yorker, it’s understood a staffer at its One World Trade Center office is displaying symptoms of the coronavirus.
As a result, Condé is deep cleaning the area where the employee sits and is continuing to advise staffers to work from home if they can until the end of March. It is not known which publication they work for.
Time magazine, which is housed in the Salesforce tower hovering over Bryant Park, has encouraged its whole office to work from home today and for the rest of the week after some employees became sick. Although execs believe it’s just a winter bug, they are taking precautions.
