What is the Coronavirus?
COVID-19, which stands for Coronavirus Disease 2019, is a highly contagious respiratory illness caused
by a virus. While most cases are mild to moderate, similar to a common cold, cases can be more severe
for older adults and those with chronic health conditions. The Coronavirus is mostly spread from person
to person by droplets when coughing and from contact with surfaces where those droplets have landed.
Health authorities and experts are continuing to observe how this virus spreads.
