Older Adults and people with certain underlying medical conditions are at increased risk for serious illness from COVID-19. If your household includes one or more people who are at increased risk, then all family members should act as if they, themselves, are at increased risk.
People who live in multi-generational households may find it difficult to take precautions to protect themselves from COVID-19 or isolate those who are sick, especially if space in the household is limited and many people live in the same household. CDC recently created guidance for multi-generational households. Although the guidance was developed as part of CDC’s outreach to tribal communities, the information could be useful for all families, including those with both children and older adults in the same home.
As in-person learning at schools resumes, increases in in-person interactions could increase the risk to exposure to COVID-19. Everyone in the household should take steps to stay healthy and protect each other from getting sick, by practicing everyday preventive actions, limiting interactions with other people, and staying informed on COVID-19 updates.
