HUD: CDC Issues Order on Temporary Protection from Eviction

On August 03, 2021, The Center for Disease Control (CDC) issued a new order temporarily halting evictions in counties with heightened levels of community transmission in order to respond to recent, unexpected developments in the trajectory of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the rise of the Delta variant. It is intended to target specific areas of the country where cases are rapidly increasing, which likely would be exacerbated by mass evictions.

Read the order in its entirety on the CDC website.
