<br />highly contagious. Provider assumes the risks associated with providing services pursuant to this
<br />Agreement, namely potential exposure to COVID-19. Provider acknowledges that while some
<br />people have no symptoms or mild symptoms from COVID-19, some people have become seriously
<br />ill requiring hospitalization and that some people have died from COVID-19. Provider

<br />free will.

<br />have or could have in the future and includes any claims resulting from potential exposure or actual
<br />exposure to COVID-19, this includes claims for personal injury, transmittal of COVID-19 to
<br />others, and/or wrongful death. Provider agrees to hold harmless, defend and indemnify the City,
<br />its public officials, officers, employees, volunteers, and agents from any and all claims for liability
<br />or damages, including those for exposure to or diagnosis with COVID-19 as a result of providing
