For employees asking for reassignment away from caring for COVID-19 patients, are you considering the following conditions when approving requests for such accommodations:

Pregnancy (any risk stratification based on gestational age, etc.)

Chronic medical conditions - are you considering any particular ones based on severity (moderate persistent asthma, etc.)

Primary caregivers of immunosuppressed individuals 

Thanks,

Abhijay
