When it comes to celebrating holidays this year,
things are a little different than usual
Consider if it’s possible to plan your visit during an off-peak time,
when there are fewer people traveling
Plan for a smaller gathering than usual,
it just may not be possible to bring everyone together this year
Keep an eye on the covid case numbers
for where you’re planning to travel to and where you’re coming from
It will bring peace of mind to have every family member tested before gathering,
and if you’re feeling unwell or the test comes back positive,
skip this trip
Travel increases your chances of getting and spreading COVID-19
as bus stations, train stations, airports and rest stops
are all places travelers could be exposed to the virus in the air and on surfaces
So if you can safely drive to your destination,
it might be best to do so
Set ground rules and expectations that anyone unwell stays away,
and follow the regular safety guidelines for COVID-19
Under these conditions it may be better to stay with family
than in hotels where other travelers frequent
It’s good practice to quarantine at home before you return to the office
Keep a lookout for symptoms and get tested if you are concerned
Happy holidays and stay safe
