The virus that causes COVID-19 infects people of all ages. However, evidence to date suggests that two groups of people are at a higher risk of getting severe COVID-19 disease. These are older people (that is people over 60 years old); and those with underlying medical conditions (such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer). The risk of severe disease gradually increases with age starting from around 40 years. It's important that adults in this age range protect themselves and, in turn, protect others who may be more vulnerable. The WHO has issued advice for these two groups and for community support to ensure that they are protected from COVID-19, without being isolated, stigmatised, left in a position of increased vulnerability or unable to access basic provisions and social care. This advice covers the subject of receiving visitors, planning for supplies of medication and food, going out safely in public and staying connected with others through phone calls or other available means. It is essential that these groups are supported by their communities during the COVID-19 outbreak. The WHO emphasises that all people must protect themselves from COVID -19, which will in turn protect others.
