Being sick sucks, being sick in the US sucks even more.

Clearly mistakes have been made here, perhaps by both employee and employer, and I hope that the appropriate lessons will be learned (apologies for the cliche). But I don't want to see anyone losing their job as a consequence of this episode.
It sounds like Benj chose to work from home rather than just taking a sick day. Maybe he didn't feel that sick, but wanted to avoid exposing anyone else.
