Co-working startup the Wing will close all locations starting Saturday, taking precautions following the global spread of the coronavirus. The company, whose offerings focus on women, has 11 branches in the U.S. and London. Offices will remain closed through at least March 31, the startup said.

The announcement follows moves at many other companies asking employees to stay home. Amazon.com Inc., Facebook Inc. and Microsoft Corp. have all recommended staff work remotely.
