The COVID-19 outbreak is another tragic reminder that the U.S. is not prepared to adequately protect workers on the front lines from infectious disease. Preparedness is only effective if it includes a comprehensive framework to protect the health and safety of workers on the front lines of preventing a pandemic. OSHA has the authority and responsibility to protect the health and safety of America’s workers and must act swiftly. The magnitude and urgency of this outbreak cannot be minimized. OSHA must issue an emergency temporary standard for infectious diseases to ensure that workers will be protected from all infectious diseases, including COVID-19. https://actionnetwork.org/forms/covid-19-take-action
