EDS and coronavirus (COVID-19)
It is understandable that people with EDS and associated health challenges are worried about their risk of contracting the new coronavirus which causes the illness COVID-19. As the virus is newly identified, there is very little known about how it affects people and there is no specific advice for people with EDS. It is not proven that people with EDS are any more likely than others to catch or become ill from viruses. Therefore we advise following the NHS's advice on social distancing, hygiene and what to do if you have coronavirus symptoms.
