What precautions should you take to help prevent coronavirus? WSJWhatsNow
U.S. information giant S&P Global Inc. evacuated 1,200 employees from its London office Thursday as a precaution against the coronavirus after a person diagnosed with the illness visited the building in the Canary Wharf finance district.The sick person who visited is an HSBC Holdings PLC employee, S&P told staff in an internal memo reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.
The affected HSBC employee “is under medical supervision and has self-isolated,” the bank said in a statement. “We are deep-cleaning the floor where our colleague worked and shared areas of the building. Colleagues on that floor, and others who came into contact with him, have been advised to work at home.”
There were few handshakes, but that didn't stop 54 couples from crowding into an open house and a chance to buy a two-bedroom co-op on Riverside Drive on Manhattan's West Side on Saturday. It was listed for $895,000. After 25 years in sales, broker Andrew Phillips of Halstead said he had perfected his technique of extending his hand to all buyers at open houses. But on Riverside Drive on Saturday, he held back, and only shook hands when a buyer initiated the handshake ritual. He said his handshake rate fell from 95% to about 25%. By the end of the two-hour open house five groups of buyers made offers, he said.
