The holiday season will be different from years past. Instead of large gatherings of friends and family, groups will be smaller in size and festivities may shift to a virtual environment.

It’s an enormous understatement to say that the pandemic has upended lives across the country and the planet. People have been forced to change their routines; exercise extreme caution; and handle as well as they can the economical, medical, and personal effects of COVID-19. Nowhere is that more apparent than with how we visit and interact with the members of our family who may be at higher risk for the disease. Specifically, elderly members of our family have had to deal with fewer visits and new precautions. As we move swiftly through the holiday season, these precautions have led many to debate whether it’s even possible to visit their parents, grandparents, or other older family members. The following article is not here to say whether you should or not. The situation with COVID remains fluid, and you must follow your local, state, and federal guidelines in all the actions that you take. However, if you are planning on visiting your family, there are some ways to make it safer for them and yourself.
A newborn’s immune system takes months to develop and still requires vaccines to strengthen it. Because of this, newborns face an elevated risk during pandemics and flu season. To make matters worse, the coronavirus is still evolving and there are currently no readily available vaccines against it for newborns. Whether or not parents allow you to visit with their newborns may come down to personal preference and their doctors’ recommendations. How they allow you to visit may also depend on these factors, so it’s important to establish and respect the boundaries that parents set from the start. In addition to this, keep in mind the following tips.
With the holidays creeping up, you likely have already begun to scroll through online offerings to choose gifts for your loved ones. You may find most of the gifts you need online, but some things require in-person shopping. The more elaborate or customized the gift, the truer that may be. So, how do you stay safe while hunting for the perfect gifts?
Need to do holiday shopping at a local, in-person store? Great -- your HALOmask will keep you protected and comfortable. However, as you enjoy your time out and about, remember to show extra appreciation for the workers who keep our society moving forward through the pandemic: retail workers, food service employees, and grocery clerks.
As you enjoy the holiday season, you may find yourself out and about more frequently. This time of year, it's easy to get wrapped up (pun intended) in gift shopping -- but it's important to remember to disinfect surfaces of your home frequently. Cleaning is not the safe as disinfecting. Learn how to keep your home safe below.
