In February 2020, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) issued the following information related to the coronavirus:
- Interim Guidance for Businesses and Employers to Plan and Respond to Coronavirus Disease, which provides recommended workplace strategies for employers and guidance on how to decrease COVID-19 (coronavirus) spread, information on how to respond to outbreaks, and additional resources; and
- Public Health Response to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Outbreak, which provides a chronological timeline and summary of the virus, cases reported in the United States, and the agency’s public health response to the illness.
Also, the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has a COVID-19 website for workers and employers addressing the disease, providing guidance, and offering other resources for preventing exposures to and infections with the coronavirus.
