CDC is responding to a pandemic of respiratory disease spreading from person-to-person caused by a novel (new) coronavirus (COVID-19) first identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. This situation poses a serious public health risk. The federal government is working closely with state, local, tribal, and territorial partners, as well as public health partners, to respond to this situation. COVID-19 can cause mild to severe illness; most severe illness occurs in older adults. The best way to prevent and slow down transmission is be well informed about the COVID-19 virus, the disease it causes and how it spreads.
