Coronavirus disease (COVID-19)

People aged 65 or older or those who have at least one chronic health condition make up 74% of those who have been hospitalized and 98% of deaths for COVID-19.
Supporting those at the highest risk for severe disease is essential so that they can stay home and away from others.
The number of COVID-19 hospitalizations are leveling off. This trend indicates social distancing measures seem to be working and we need to continue our efforts to keep flattening the curve.
