COVID-19 and People Who Use Drugs or Have Substance Use Disorder

Note: This page is designed for people who use drugs or have substance use disorder; their friends, family, and loved ones; and the general public.

Having a substance use disorder can make you more likely to get severely ill from COVID-19.  People who use drugs may also have underlying medical conditions that put them at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19, and they may have concerns and questions related to their risk.

CDC. COVID-19 Questions and Answers: For People Who Use Drugs or Have Substance Use Disorder

Having a substance use disorder can make you more likely to get severely ill from COVID-19.  People who use drugs may also have underlying medical conditions that put them at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19, and they may have concerns and questions related to their risk. Additionally, recent data and reports show that fatal drug overdoses in the United States have been increasing before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is an emerging, rapidly evolving situation and CDC will provide updated information as it becomes available.
