Every year during the holiday season friends and family gather around the table have a wonderful feast. Mostly Parents and their Children eat Christmas dinner together or extended family members attend as well. This is one of the most important parts of Christmas Day that people have planned. They would go to the store prior to Christmas and buy everything they need to prepare the dinner or they would have catered food. Usually the only thing that would ruin a Christmas dinner would be burnt turkey or a power outage, this year it's something much bigger than that.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, families are questioning if they should carry on with their dinner plans or cancel them. If an infected person comes to the dinner, the whole family could contract COVID-19. The virus affects people in different ways, either mild symptoms or serious complications. World Leaders and Health Officials are urging people not to get together on Christmas to prevent further cases of COVID-19. So many other holidays were affected by this Pandemic and Christmas is about to be the next.
Christmas dinner could still go on as long as safety steps are taken. You can eat dinner with others on a video meeting app like Zoom or Skype, as long as your internet is good. If you still want to be with your family in person, you have to quarantine for 14 days, that means staying home and away from others. If you didn't get to quarantine on time, you could get tested for COVID-19 and if you're negative then you could go. Always keep others safe and never go out if you having any symptoms of COVID-19.
