CORONAVIRUS (COVID -19) 

What is COVID-19?

While many Seniors have been vaccinated against the COVID-19 virus, there are several variants that have been identified in the DC area.  Recently, there has been an increase in Covid-19 positive cases amongst residents who have not been vaccinated throughout the DC metro area. We urge our Seniors to continue to wear a mask and take other necessary precautions to stay healthy. 

Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that are known to cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Severe Acute Respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS).
