I’m a patient at a hospital. Am I at risk for COVID-19 from other patients?
We recommend people with suspected COVID-19 cases be in their own room in a healthcare setting. Healthcare workers are trained to remove their personal protective equipment (PPE) and wash their hands after seeing a patient, so the infection doesn’t leave the room.
