Do you think that if a business follows all of the COVID 19 prevention practices and recommendations, do you think they should be immune from lawsuits linked to outbreaks? I do not believe in blanket immunity [for businesses regarding COVID-19 lawsuits]. I do not. Because even though we know that there are businesses out there that are going to follow all the proper protocols, they're going to make sure that their employees are safe, and they're going to make sure that the customers are safe. (18:20–18:23)
