[quote=Anonymous]I used Mamabear.com for the legal forms -- HIPAA release, durable power of attorney for medical issues, durable power of attorney for financial issues. I am sure I could have found the forms myself for free but I was happy to throw $49 at it to have it done and dusted.

LOTS of face masks plus make sure he knows how to use them correctly (and how not to touch his face all the time, touch the front, etc.). I'm sending my son with a box of disposables as well as a set of at least 7 cloth masks with filters and two mesh bags, one for clean and one for dirty, for washing in.

Socialize outside, if at all. Being in other people's air volumes, especially indoors, is the highest risk. If he and his roommates just have everyone over all the time that's obviously much less safe than either podding together or agreeing on only seeing friends outside the apartment.

Definitely they need rules about what happens if someone gets sick.

I'm seeing a lot of recommendations for a go-bag for getting sick -- i.e. like your hospital bag for when you're pregnant -- in case he has to go quarantine somewhere or god forbid go to the hospital. Ibuprofen, acetominophen (sp? Tylenol), cough drops, a couple changes of comfy clothes.

Make sure he has a copy of his insurance card, send him with any prescriptions and OTC meds, and make sure he knows what the signs and symptoms of covid are![/quote]
