YesNo
Your risk is: 0
value between 0 (no risk) and 4 (most risky situation)
This risk scale does not take into account :
- of the number of people with COVID-19 in your area: more precautions should be taken in areas where coronavirus circulation is active (many cases of patients with COVID-19)
- vulnerability: if you are a vulnerable person, you need to consider the risk of developing a serious form of COVID-19.
