Description:CDC will update guidance on community mitigation for COVID-19 to align with the latest available science. (Updated on 07/13/20)
Community mitigation activities are actions that people and communities can take to slow the spread of a new virus with pandemic potential. During the COVID-19 pandemic, community mitigation actions are especially important before a vaccine or therapeutic drug becomes widely available. The goal of community mitigation in areas with local SARS-CoV-2 transmission is to slow its spread and to protect all individuals. These actions can minimize illnesses and deaths in schools, workplaces, healthcare organizations, and other sectors of society. This resource is a reference for states, tribes, territories, and localities as they consider which actions to take to mitigate community transmission
of COVID-19 in the United States. It includes links to mitigation guidance for specific sectors as well as tools that communities and facilities can use to assess areas for improvement and to operationalize community mitigation guidance. For more details about key factors to consider before using these strategies, see CDC’s community mitigation framework for COVID-19.
