What is COVID-19

COVID-19, more commonly known as Coronavirus Disease 2019, is an upper respiratory illness that can spread rapidly from person to person.  Risk of infection with COVID-19 is higher for older adults and people who have underlying medical conditions such as chronic lung disease, moderate to severe asthma, heart disease, diabetes or a compromised immune system.

COVID-19 can appear 2-14 days after exposure.  Symptoms include: cough, fever, shortness of breath.  If you develop emergency warning signs for COVID-19 seek medical attention immediately.  Emergency warning signs include: trouble breathing, persistent pain or pressure in the chest, new confusion, bluish lips or face.
