Due to concerns over Coronavirus, many parents are very reluctant to send their children back to the classroom and they are not satisfied with the online learning model.

It seems as though, in addition to changing the idea of the office, the Coronavirus will accelerate the trend towards automation. If human being cannot be in the warehouses and factories, robots can do the work instead. Might be cheaper and safer but what happens to all those workers? Are they going to get trained for new jobs?
