AI Summary
This bill, the Isolate COVID-19 Act of 2020, aims to reduce the spread of COVID-19 by providing payments to states to lease hotels to temporarily house, on a voluntary basis, individuals who have a confirmed or presumptive positive case of COVID-19, or are displaying COVID-19 symptoms but do not require inpatient or outpatient healthcare treatment. The bill requires states to submit an application and meet certain criteria, such as providing health guidelines for hotel staff, ensuring proper personal protective equipment and sanitation, and coordinating with healthcare providers. The bill also provides liability protection for hotels and their staff, and authorizes $1 billion in funding to be available through the end of 2021 or the end of the COVID-19 emergency period, whichever is earlier.
