POLL RESULTS: How are you observing the holidays in 2021?

From the CDC:

Generally:

• Protect those not yet eligible for vaccination such as young children by getting yourself and other eligible people around them vaccinated.
• Wear well-fitting masks over your nose and mouth if you are in public indoor settings if you are not fully vaccinated.
  • Even those who are fully vaccinated should wear a mask in public indoor settings in communities with substantial to high transmission.
    • Outdoors is safer than indoors.
  • Avoid crowded, poorly ventilated spaces.
  • If you are sick or have symptoms, don’t host or attend a gathering.
  • Get tested if you have symptoms of COVID-19 or have a close contact with someone who has COVID-19.

Here’s how Milton Neighbors voted:

“Life is short, live.”

“Everyone fully vaccinated including kids.”

“Splitting into 2 days instead of all together – Christmas Eve -12 people and Christmas Day 18 people.”

“Adults are vaccinated and kids have no real risk.” [Editor’s note: unvaccinated kids can contract covid and spread it to others, and can get very ill from the virus themselves (source).]
