What are the vulnerable groups?

The main vulnerable groups are those over the age of 60, and those diagnosed with high blood pressure, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic lung disease, cancer, immunodeficiencies, and pregnancy by the precautionary principle.

How is the new coronavirus transmitted?

Transmission appears to be through close contact with respiratory secretions generated by a sick person's cough or sneeze.

Its contagiousness depends on the amount of the virus in the airways.

These secretions would infect another person if they come in contact with their nose, eyes, or mouth.

Transmission by air over distances greater than 1-2 meters seems unlikely.
