> WHO most reliable

WHO, presumably under China's pressure, discarded Taiwan's findings in December that this was human to human transmissible. Also they have a tweet in January saying the opposite. At this point WHOs reputation is same as that of OPCW.

What's OPCW? And how is it relevant to the financial resources available to companies and freelancers?
I would think that people should be avoiding co-working spaces just as much as they're avoiding traditional offices. I know that the local co-working spaces here (Chicago) are all closed.
Thanks for your comment dhosek! Indeed most of the coworking spaces are closed but in certain regions of the world (like Sweden or even Germany) the government did not instruct them to close so some of them still operate with a change in their policy (for instance shorter working hours, reinforcing their cleaning policy, handing over hand sanitizer to members, etc...)
Even if the government hasn't ordered them closed, it might be worth avoiding them as an individual. Especially if your government is one that hasn't been super on point with responding to the pandemic (so maybe not germany so much since they seem to be doing a reasonable ok job compared to some other areas). If there's significant undertesting etc in your area, the government will not have a full enough picture of the situation to be making accurate reccomendations about what should be open and closed.
Agreed! Most coworking spaces who remained open do not do any events, nor do they let visitors come in. In most cases, the space is strictly accessible to members who need to come to let's say pick up their mail.

Also, the purpose of the article is for coworking spaces and their members to find financial and helpful resources in their region as most of them are closed and see members resigning.
