twinklover 		I`m almost certain there`s a new law about this, saying that they can.
I`m not positive, though

gopbol 		pretty much, because of recent order by president; however there are probably some hospitals that are not subject to these federal orders

torogay 		Of course they can come visit, but(!) as of right now, by law they can not make any medical decisions for their life-partner unless partner has given them medical power of attorney
