How COVID-19 Spreads
COVID-19 is thought to spread mainly through close contact from person to person,
including between people who are physically near each other (within about 6 feet).
People who are infected but do not show symptoms can also spread the virus to others.
We are still learning about how the virus spreads and the severity of illness it causes.
