Predictors of COVID-19 infection and hospitalization in group homes for individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities.
The objective of this study was to identify correlates of COVID-19 and related hospitalizations among people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (ID/DD) in group homes in Massachusetts. The results showed that, compared with Massachusetts residents, group home residents had higher age-adjusted rates of COVID-19 and of hospitalization in the first two waves of the pandemic. COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations were more likely among residents aged over 65 and in group homes with more than six resident beds and recent infection among staff and residents. The authors concluded that aggressive efforts to decrease resident density, staff-to-resident ratios, and staff infections may reduce COVID-19 and related hospitalizations in people with ID/DD living in group homes.

Ensuring full participation of people with disabilities in an era of telehealth.
This paper discusses the benefits and drawbacks that the widespread use of telehealth resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic has on people with disabilities. For some it may result in reduced barriers to care, but for others inadequate attention to the design, implementation, and policy dimensions may be detrimental.
