What You Need to Know
• COVID-19 Community Levels help individuals and communities decide which prevention actions to take based on the latest information.
• Each level helps convey how much COVID-19 is impacting your community using data on hospitalizations and cases.
• Using these data, communities are classified as low, medium, or high.
• For each level, CDC recommends actions you can take to help you protect yourself and others from severe impacts of COVID-19.
Many people in the United States have some protection, or immunity, against COVID-19 due to vaccination, previous infection, or both. This immunity, combined with the availability of tests and treatments, has greatly reduced the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19 for many people.
At the same time, some people—such as those who are older, are immunocompromised, have certain disabilities, or have certain underlying health conditions—continue to be at higher risk for serious illness. Learn more about the factors that can affect your risk of getting very sick from COVID-19 to better understand how COVID-19 could affect you and others around you.
