Question: Will disabilities make me more likely to get coronavirus?

Answer passage (source: CDC):
page_title: People with Disabilities
section_headers: Protect Yourself
section_content: If you or someone you care for are at higher
risk of getting very sick from COVID-19, take steps to prevent
getting sick. In
addition to practicing everyday preventive actions, people with disabilities
who have direct support providers can help protect themselves from respiratory
illness in the following ways:

Ask your direct support provider if they are experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19 or if they have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19
Tell your direct service provider to 
Wash their hands when they enter your home and before and after touching you (e.g., dressing, bathing/showering, transferring, toileting, feeding), handling tissues, or when changing linens or doing laundry. Learn more about proper handwashing.
Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces (e.g., counters, tabletops, doorknobs, bathroom fixtures, toilets, phones, keyboards, tablets, bedside tables), and equipment such as wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, canes, oxygen tanks and tubing, communication boards and other assistive devices. Refer to CDC’s General Recommendations for Routine Cleaning and Disinfections of Households.




Reviewer feedback on this answer:
The answer addresses people with disabilities who have direct support providers but does not really answer the question if they are more likely to get coronavirus.
This answer doesn't address if being disabled makes you more likely to get the disease as opposed to how your care worker can keep from a giving you the disease.

section_headers: Higher Risk
Are people with disabilities at higher risk?
section_content: Most people with disabilities are not inherently at higher risk for becoming
infected with or having severe illness from COVID-19. Some people with
physical limitations or other disabilities might be at a higher risk of
infection because of their underlying medical condition.

People with certain disabilities might experience higher rates of chronic health conditions that put them at higher risk of serious illness and poorer outcomes from COVID-19. Adults with disabilities are three times more likely to have heart disease, stroke, diabetes, or cancer than adults without disabilities.

You should talk with your healthcare provider if you have a question about
your health or how your health condition is being managed.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
It answers the question directly and provides further information about the higher risk of complications people with disabilities might face if they do get sick from COVID-19.
This answer addresses disabilities creating other chronic illnesses which could make a person more susceptible so that answers the question in a roundabout fashion.

Answer passage (source: CDC):
page_title: People with Disabilities
section_headers: About COVID-19
section_content: 
Coronavirus disease is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. The virus is thought to spread mainly between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It is also possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or eyes. For more information go to CDC’s Fact Sheet- What you need to know about coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Risk of infection with COVID-19 is higher for people who are in close contact with someone known to have COVID-19, such as healthcare workers, direct support providers, and household members. Other people at higher risk for infection are those who live or have recently been in an area with ongoing spread of COVID-19.


Reviewer feedback on this answer:
The answer does not answer the question since it talks about people who are in close contact with someone known to have COVID-19 rather than people with disabilities.
The first answer discusses how the disease is spread without mentioning or addressing the disabled portion of the question.
