    CDC’s COVID-19 Community Levels recommendations do not apply in healthcare settings, such as hospitals and nursing homes. Instead, healthcare settings should continue to use community transmission rates and continue to follow CDC’s infection prevention and control recommendations for healthcare settings.

    This page is intended for use by healthcare professionals who are caring for people in the community setting under isolation with COVID-19. For more information for the general population in the community, please see Isolation and Precautions for People with COVID-19.

    These recommendations do not apply to healthcare personnel in the healthcare setting, and do not supersede state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and regulations. For healthcare settings, please see Managing Healthcare Personnel with SARS-CoV-2 Infection or Exposure to SARS-CoV-2 and Interim Infection Prevention and Control Recommendations for Healthcare Personnel. For more details, including details on certain non-healthcare settings, please review Setting-Specific Guidance.
