Let's put a hault to face to face visit
 

I have several family members who use a service facilitator moms in motion in Richmond Virginia and it has been brought to my attention beginning January they are going to start face to face monthly meetings. My daughter is very ill and it is an extremely dangerous situation to have an individual in her home for even a brief duration that has traveled to various households. Even with proper hand washing and mask wearing it is impossible to guarantee the safety of my relatives especially my child who does not have an immune system and his bedroom. I am not only sickened and devastated by this news but also appalled that this is even being considered. Please think about the people that will die. Virtual visits are going to have to be sufficient for the next several years possibly indefinitely.
