Suspected or confirmed COVID-19 cases presenting with a mild clinical symptomatology (commonly fever, cough, headache, or malaise) will not require hospitalisation and may be safely managed at home. The majority of these people will spontaneously recover without complications. However, the household is a particularly high-risk setting for transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

The aim of this micro-learning course is to provide information on the measures for infection prevention and control (IPC) at the household level when assisting suspected or confirmed COVID-19 cases with mild symptoms.

Reviewers say, "I think overall the content is informative and the practices are applicable."
