Description:

Updated Aug. 10, 2020

People who are homeless are at risk of COVID-19.

Homeless services are often provided in congregate settings, which could facilitate the spread of infection. Because many people who are homeless are older adults or have underlying medical conditions, they may also be at increased risk for severe illness.

Health departments and healthcare facilities should be aware that people who are homeless are a particularly vulnerable group. If possible, identifying non-congregate settings where those at increased risk can stay may help protect them from COVID-19.
Content Notes:

How people experiencing homelessness can protect themselves -- If people experiencing homelessness have symptoms -- How to get tested for COVID-19 -- Anyone sick with COVID-19 should stay isolated -- Donations of food and clothing to homeless service providers -- Symptom screening of clients at homeless shelters -- Keeping open homeless shelters and encampments.
