The following questions should be considered by board members before attempting to enact a permanent standard.

• Where is the proof that Virginia's workers are in grave danger?  (hard data)
• Where is the data that show the ETS was effective in reducing the spread of COVID-19?
• Where is the data that shows the effectiveness of VOSH enforcement of the ETS?
• Where is the data that shows the effectiveness of the VOSH Consultation Program in regard to COVID-19?
• Where is the economic impact analysis?

Without this information the board would be negligent in enacting a permanent standard.
