This handout photo provided Carlson Management and taken in the spring of 2020 shows a plexiglass cubicle, dubbed the "Sneezeguard 3000," at the Rockville Terrace assisted living home in Fairfield, California. A staff member built this and other cubicles for the company's three assisted living homes in California so that family members could visit safely with family members while on their phones during the coronavirus pandemic. They started using the cubicles in April and report that they've had very little coronavirus in their facilities due to these and other safety measures. (Courtesy of Carlson Management via AP)

This handout photo provided by his family shows 93-year-old Wake Sharp, center behind plexiglass, visiting with three other generations of his family for Father's Day, Sunday, June 21, 2020, in Fairfield, California. This setup, in which they talk by phone, has enabled the family to visit in person during the coronavirus pandemic. Sharp's son Dan Sharp, on the right, says, "I don't know who enjoys it more. My family and I – or dad." He paused then added, "Probably dad." Wake Sharp is a World War II veteran who worked for years as a vice president for the Montgomery Ward department store chain.
