Dunno about that, if some jerk goes around intentionally trying to infect people, there should be recourse.
Homosexuals of already established changes in law that you do not even have to Declare your HIV status to a potential sex partner if you are positive. So Goes one disease so goes all. If there’s no legal repercussions for a person with HIV having sex with someone without disclosing this then nobody can be prosecuted for Covid h1n1 or any of this

It’s already been proposed at https://reason.com/2020/04/13/should-congress-preempt-coronavirus-liability-for-businesses-that-reopen/.
I agree. The potential of lawsuits is going to make it harder for companies to want to reopen. Lawyers should not benefit from this horrible tragedy. Remember, the trial lawyers are among the biggest contributors to the Democrats.
I am a lawyer, and I absolutely agree...because first I am a citizen and a human being.
Someone who deliberately spread the disease should be criminally charged.
I take a different approach. I believe every man, woman, and child who gets COVID be sued into the ground.
Slip n fall.
Or at a minimum limit the level of liability and make the person that files the lawsuit pay the court and lawyer costs if he loses.
Written properly this sounds like a good idea.
Should have been a rule of ours for our fedgov pols for decades. Who the hell else can write legislation that's thousands of pages long? Who do those Bills really represent? Lawyers. (or lawyerticians as I like to call them) Who's got plenty of lawyers? Big business. Therefor, who owns fedgov/pols? Big business.
Wouldn’t it be more fun if we required any Lawyer suing for ChiCom Flu Damages, personally be infected with the virus? or we could just start killing them all
