    Repeals GS 99E-72, which made GS Chapter 99E Article 8 (providing limited immunity from claims for relief arising from any act or omission alleged to have resulted in the contraction of COVID-19) applicable to claims arising no later than 180 days after the expiration or rescission of Executive Order No. 116 issued by the Governor on March 10, 2020 (which declared a State of Emergency in response to COVID-19 and set out related provisions). 

    Specifies that this does not affect any immunity from liability provided under SL 2020-3 (which sets out numerous provisions in response to COVID-19).
