The COVID-19 pandemic has taken the lives of over 400,000 Americans, the majority of whom are older adults or other high-risk individuals. This webinar highlighted the online, free, and confidential tool, CV19 CheckUp, which is available to help users across the country evaluate their own risk levels associated with COVID-19 through a personalized and comprehensive questionnaire. ADvancing States is pleased to partner with the team that developed the CV19 CheckUp with the mission of helping millions of individuals identify and reduce risks. Data collected through CV19 CheckUp so far is already helping to highlight why it’s so critical to focus efforts around helping older adults understand and mitigate risk; as illustrated in this national infographic, older adults may underestimate the risk levels of their own behaviors.
