On March 10, 2020, Mary Daniel went to visit her husband like she did every day after he’d been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. What Daniel did not know was that the next day she’d be told she could not come back—because of new lockdown measures. “The days turned into weeks and the weeks turned into months,” Daniel said. Mary Daniel eventually got in as a dishwasher at her husband’s facility, and her story gained nationwide attention. Discovering thousands of Americans in similar situations, she founded the group Caregivers for Compromise—Because Isolation Kills, Too. After hearing about her, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis brought her onto his task force to reopen long-term care facilities.
