Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Pima County Health Department is asking everyone to celebrate Halloween this year in a manner that reduces the risk of spreading COVID-19.
One of the things the department recommends to avoid is the annual tradition of door-to-door trick-or-treating.
That’s because it’s difficult to maintain proper physical distancing on porches and at front doors, and sharing food, reaching into a shared candy bowl, or being given candy by hand are all potential risk factors in spreading the coronavirus.
For a list of recommended things to avoid, and possible alternatives, follow the link below.
