  • What are the rights of people with disabilities who are at high risk of severe complications from COVID
  • What accommodations are available for people with disabilities in the workplace and remotely?
  • Can an employer test employees for COVID and/or require COVID vaccinations?
  • What are the employment rights people who have a family member with a disability?
