Keep Virtual Visits
 

Please keep virtual visits as an option. As a Service Facilitator, I know that many of my clients would rather keep visits virtual. Many of them have compromised immune systems. They are afraid of me carrying or spreading illness to them from my other clients. Many of my clients don't go out in public unless they absolutely have to. Most of them do Dr visits virtually when possible and send family members out for supplies when they need them. They don't want to be around other people because they don't want to get sick. Covid and the Flu are very bad in my area. These people deserve the opportunity to keep themselves healthy.
