COVID-19 BY CATEGORY & DEMOGRAPHIC

ARE YOU A YOUNGER PERSON AND BASICALLY HEALTHY? THE ODDS ARE GREATLY ON YOUR SIDE THAT, IF YOU CONTRACT CORONAVIRUS, YOUR ILLNESS WILL COME AND GO WITHOUT THE NEED FOR FACE-TO-FACE MEDICAL ATTENTION. STAY AT HOME, SELF-ISOLATE, REST, DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS, AND CALL YOUR HEALTH CARE PROVIDER IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS. DO YOU HAVE A CHRONIC CONDITION SUCH AS HEART OR LUNG DISEASE OR DIABETES? ARE YOU IN YOUR SEVENTIES? EIGHTIES? OLDER? IF YOU FIT INTO EITHER OR BOTH OF THOSE CATEGORIES, YOU MIGHT BE AT HIGHER RISK FOR SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS FROM COVID-19. STAY IN TOUCH WITH YOUR HEALTHCARE PROVIDER BY PHONE AND MAKE SURE THEY KNOW ABOUT ALL OF YOUR SYMPTOMS. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION IF YOU START TO EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTY BREATHING, PERSISTENT PAIN OR PRESSURE IN THE CHEST, CONFUSION, DIFFICULTY STAYING ALERT OR BLUISH COLOR IN THE LIPS OR FACE.
