South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster has signed the “South Carolina COVID-19 Liability Immunity Act” into law, providing legal immunity to certain businesses that reasonably adhere to public health guidance in effect at the time an applicable COVID-19-related claim arises.
Entities covered by the new law include for-profit and not-for-profit businesses, as well as South Carolina state agencies, healthcare facilities, and individuals who are directors, officers, employees, and representatives of these businesses or state agencies.
