This work explores caring robots' lifesaving benefits, particularly during contagion, while probing the threat they pose to interpersonal engagement and genuine human caregiving.

As humans, we have a binding moral responsibility to care for the Other, and genuine caring demands our embodied, human-to-human presence.
