Notes
Legislative recognition, one month into Safer at Home, of the emergency and the closures; context for the T9 continuing-suspension arithmetic.
Retrieval noteThe 'substantially consistent with' condition is the Wisconsin Legislature's statement that official guidance and recommendations were the standard of care for the class it protected. Act 185 § 99-104 also created § 895.51(2r)-(3r) (emergency medical supplies immunity). The general shield of 2021 Act 4 (DUT-WI-008) carries no guidance condition.
