NH Medical Society Denounces Insurers' COVID-19 Science

The New Hampshire Medical Society blasted arguments from insurers that COVID-19 can be easily removed, telling the state's high court that the arguments amount to "junk science."

A group of insurers is appealing a lower court's ruling largely in favor of Schleicher and Stebbins Hotels LLC and its affiliates, which are looking to tap into part of a $600 million tower of insurance for their losses.

Schleicher and Stebbins were granted partial summary judgment in June 2021 when a judge held that damage caused by the presence of the coronavirus was a "direct physical loss or damage" to the hotels.
