IIRC, in one of the COVID rescue bills passed, there was a specific
exemption for organizations protecting them from suits for people being
infected as part of operation.
That said, in the US, pretty much anybody can pursue a suit against anyone
for anything at any time - the waivers help to discourage such and may help
later as evidence of informed consent toward *defending against* the case.

  Have there been dance groups sued because someone
caught Covid at a
 dance?  Is that what a waiver prevents?  How did they prove they caught it
 at the dance?
