Virtual visits are essential to protecting people like my daughter. While visits are required for DMAS, they aren't the only ones requiring visits. Multiple people visit with us every month and with those vistitors comes the germs and illnesses of every other family they have had to visit before us. I limit contact with others as much as possible to protect my daughter, but the state is willing to put her at risk and for what?
Visits can easily be accomplished virtually. They are able to see my daughter and talk with me all while keeping her safe. As a mother, I would be happier knowing I am doing all I can to keep her safe. As a state, you should care about your citizens - all of them, even the ones who cannot advocate for themselves.
