Health worker protection advances over Democratic objections

Legislation to protect health care providers from COVID-19 lawsuits gained Senate approval, despite Democratic efforts to block a final vote on the bill.


The legislation would not provide liability protection for the treatment of patients who have maladies other than COVID-19, and the bill provides liability protection for health care providers treating COVID-19 patients only through October 31, 2020.
