A new survey shows that many Americans plan to take precautions this holiday season by asking guests to wear masks or by celebrating only with household members.
Nov. 17, 2021 -- With the holiday season fast approaching and millions of Americans now vaccinated against COVID-19, celebrations could look vastly different compared to the scaled back or canceled celebrations of 2020.of about 2,000 Americans conducted between Oct. 29 and Nov 1, by the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, shows that many still plan to celebrate cautiously.
"What this tells us is that people still have major concerns about COVID," Iahn Gonsenhauser, MD, chief quality and patient safety officer at the Wexner Medical Center, says. "Vaccinated individuals and groups of vaccinated individuals can have a largely normal celebration. It's the unvaccinated individuals that are prohibiting us from having normal celebrations. It's the unvaccinated groups that really need to continue to exercise mitigation strategies and precautionary measures," he says.According to the survey, the conversation about masks and vaccination status is one many Americans are willing to have this holiday season.
So what's the holiday party host to do about the unvaccinated, mask-averse uncle who wants to attend the family celebration?
