    I think we need a doctors note for more than two days

    I don’t understand that policy. The only times in the last 4 years that I’ve needed more than 2 days of sick leave was because I had covid, and I think that’s a very common experience. And people with covid should absolutely not be going to the doctors office and exposing themselves to the sick and elderly. If someone has covid, you should be telling them to stay home. We’re currently in the middle of a worldwide pandemic.

      When I call my doctor and tell them I have covid, I get a doctor’s note sent to me/my employer automatically without having to expose anyone

        Why don’t you cut out the middleman, avoid wasting your doctor’s time when there are sick people who can actually be treated, and call your work directly? This corporate beaurocracy is ridiculous, there’s no point getting doctors notes for these things.
