What if I don't have life insurance? Can I get it during the pandemic?

Yes. Insurers continue to offer new whole life and term life policies. “We have seen an increase in life insurance applications, perhaps as a result of the pandemic,” says Gina Morss-Fischer, a public affairs specialist at State Farm.

However, getting covered could take longer, particularly if you are in a high-risk group, have recently traveled to a hot zone or had COVID-19 yourself.
