What are you doing for the holidays?
I heard the recommendation from the US experts is to not travel for Thanksgiving, not more than 25 people at a dinner, eat outdoors if you can, and consider bringing your own plates and utensils.
I know someone who cancelled her plans to travel. What I don’t understand is, did anyone really need the scientists to tell them the holidays will have increased risk?
The plates and forks seem extreme.
25 seems like a big group to me.
Most of America typically has cold weather on Thanksgiving, so dinner outside is only an option for a few places, unless there is an odd break in the weather.
I definitely would not travel on Thanksgiving, so many people will be doing it.
What about Chanukah and Christmas?
