What to Remember When Hosting Gatherings This Holiday Season
(Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas)
If you’re planning on hosting a gathering over the holidays, remind guests to stay home if they’re sick or have been exposed to COVID-19 in the last 14 days. Host the gathering outdoors, when possible, and make sure indoor spaces are well-ventilated (for example, open a window). Arrange tables and chairs to allow for social distancing among people not in the same household. Wear masks when less than 6 feet apart from people or indoors, and encourage guests to bring their own food
