Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is believed to spread mainly through respiratory droplets between persons who are in close quarters Such droplets are produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks As a result infected and exposed persons are instructed to separate themselves from others to limit further spread The World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advise those who are infected with or have been exposed to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to isolate or quarantine at home in a separate bedroom and bathroom if possible To determine the feasibility of separate rooms for isolation and quarantine for housing units in the US We obtained data on residential dwelling units (excluding group quarters) and occupants from the most recently available (2017) American Housing Survey This survey includes a representative national sample of housing units and was done by the US Census Bureau, with a response rate of 80 5%
