I am an older adult. What can I do to protect myself?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends these steps for older adults and people with underlying medical conditions (like heart disease, diabetes and lung disease) who appear to be most vulnerable to the virus. The steps include: ensuring you have medication and other supplies; frequent handwashing; avoiding non-essential air travel and cruise travel; avoiding people who are showing signs of respiratory illness; and staying away from crowds (social distancing).
