What is COVID-19?

COVID-19, short for Coronavirus Disease - 2019, is a sickness caused by a virus called coronavirus. It spreads from person to person when someone with the virus coughs, sneezes, or talks, and their tiny droplets get into the air and are breathed in by others.

The best way to protect yourself is to get an updated COVID-19 vaccine. Everyone 6 months and older is eligible for vaccination. Learn more by visiting de.gov/coronavirus.
