This Thanksgiving, Stay Safe
Given the current surge in COVID-19 cases, everyone should celebrate Thanksgiving with members of their household only. If you do gather with other households, keep plans as small as possible and consistent with public health guidance. College students returning home should quarantine for 14 days before interacting with family members and should consider getting tested before leaving campus. The Department of Health strongly recommends against families taking residents out of long-term care facilities for holiday celebrations.
