The corona virus is highly contagious and people who have lung disease are quite susceptible, as are the elderly, the young and the frail. People with COPD would be highly susceptible to it. There's no vaccine and no absolute cure.

Carolyn, you need to have your doc do a six minutes walk test with you. If your sats go below 88 either at rest or with exertion, you qualify for supplemental O2 through Medicare and most insurance companies. There is Liquid O2; concentrators for the home and tanks for out and about or Portable O2 Concentrators. If you get to the point where you're making choices, come back and ask more questions.
