Query:
This article will tell our readers, massage therapists, if they
can expect their liability insurance policy to cover claims
related to COVID-19 or not. Please answer the following
questions:
-How will an insurance provider determine if a claim related to
COVID-19 transmission is covered?
-Is infectious disease transmission (from business owner or
employee to customer) normally covered by liability insurance
policies?

infectious disease transmission, or is it always looked at on a
case-by-case basis?
-If something is not specifically excluded, is it the same as it
being covered?
-Do you think a COVID-specific policy is possible in the future,
or will COVID-19 continue to fall under the coverage of
infectious diseases?
-Is the most expensive liability insurance policy always the
best policy? (And if two policies vary in price, what might be
the reason for that?)
-How important is the policy's underwriter, in terms of having
the financial wherewithal to take care of any potential claim,
and how can a customer research the reliability of an
underwriter?
-What more can you say about liability insurance coverage of
infectious diseases, including COVID-19?

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 31 July
Query:
I'm writing a story about how insurance and financial
professionals can set up effective home offices, with a focus on
people who are now working at home because of COVID-19.
I'm looking to hear from people in the insurance and financial
sectors. These are the questions I'm looking to ask...
With so many people working from now due to COVID-19, What
factors due insurance professionals need to consider when
establishing a remote workplace?
How can people create a sense of privacy and avoid distractions
while working from home?
What are some common mistakes people make when designing a home
office?
What factors do people need to consider in terms of technology?
Should they consider an upgrade on their internet? A dedicated
phone line? Or even a new computer?
What steps can be taken to keep a home office organized?
With virtual meetings so common, how can people create a proper
and effective background for when they're on camera?
What about help and support? Is creating a network of people and
companies who can help with technology issues, or even repairs,
a good idea?
Requirements:
I'm primarily looking to hear from people in the insurance and
financial sectors, but responses are also welcome from people
with an expertise in home offices.
