CDC and partners continue to investigate the source of a Listeria outbreak linked to deli meat. If you are pregnant, aged 65 years or older, or have a weakened immune system, CDC always advises that you avoid eating deli meat unless it’s heated to an internal temperature of 165°F or until steaming hot just before serving. Because deli meats can have Listeria bacteria, CDC advises this even when there are no ongoing outbreaks. https://go.usa.gov/x7gcp.

CDC updates its COVID-19 guidance to include information about potential for airborne spread. Based on current science, CDC believes people are still most likely to become infected with COVID-19 the longer and closer they are to a person with COVID-19.

A few published reports show limited, uncommon circumstances where people with COVID-19 infected others who were more than 6 feet away or shortly after the COVID-19-positive person left an area. In these instances, transmission occurred in poorly ventilated and enclosed spaces that often involved activities that caused heavier breathing, like singing or exercise. Such environments and activities may contribute to the buildup of virus-carrying particles.

CDC’s recommendations remain the same: People can protect themselves from COVID-19 by staying at least 6 feet away from others, wearing a mask that covers their nose & mouth, washing hands frequently, cleaning touched surfaces often, avoid crowded indoor spaces and ensure indoor spaces are properly ventilated, and staying home when sick.
