Virginia is one of a handful of states that now presumes providers who got COVID, got it at work, and get workers comp benefits!!
VA's new COVID-19 Workers' Comp law (sponsored and fought for by @ChrisHurstVA and made possible by advocates across the state) goes into effect today, and we have answers to your questions: track.robly.com/6d71e47f-572…
