Coronavirus (COVID-19) and Your Omaha, Nebraska Car Accident Claim
As of this writing, the Centers for Disease Control reports 15,219 cases of coronavirus (COVID-19) in the United States, with approximately 200 reported dead. This pandemic has created a crisis across the nation, with schools closing, sporting events cancelled, businesses shutting their doors, and most people choosing to stay at home to prevent the spread of the virus. So much remains shrouded in uncertainty in these times where even the number of infected people remains largely unknown as state officials patch together numbers and struggle to test people. Courthouses in Nebraska have been closed with trials being postponed until further notice. Anyone exhibiting symptoms of coronavirus has been asked not to go to court and to self-quarantine as government and health officials have been urging.
