Halloween 2020 tips to keep your young ones safe. Let MD1CARE Gold Pediatrics offer some quick, practical tips for the Halloween weekend.
It's that time of year again. Flu season is upon us and the Holidays are right around the corner. With COVID-19 cases on the rise, we understand that celebrating the Holidays this year may produce a bit more stress than usual. Though we want everyone to have a fun and loving holiday season, your family's health is our number one priority. To help ease some of the stress and keep everyone safe, here are a few Do’s and Don’ts for this Holiday season, guided by the CDC:
Do:
- Promote social distancing by arranging tables and chairs accordingly (People from the same household do not need to be six feet apart from each other, just from other families)
- Get your flu shot before any gatherings (Contact our office to schedule an appointment)
- Clean and disinfect commonly touched surfaces
- Prioritize outdoor activities
- Check state restrictions if you plan to travel
- Keep in contact with loved ones who are not able to attend celebrations through phone or video calls.
Don’t:
- Attend gatherings if you have been exposed to COVID-19 in the last 14 days or are showing COVID-19 symptoms
- Share food or drinks with others
- Engage in close contact greetings, instead offer waves and verbal greetings
- Forget your mask! (for when social distancing becomes challenging)
We hope you all have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving weekend.
Enjoy the rest of your holiday season!
