With the holiday season in full swing, Filipinos across the country are preparing for gatherings and reunions with their loved ones. But with the threat of COVID-19 is there a safe way to celebrate?

The spread of the virus is definitely a risk during holiday celebrations, experts stressed, and we must be more cautious and careful to protect ourselves and the people around us. If possible, people attending may go through a 14-day quarantine to help reduce the risk of possibly spreading COVID-19. If gatherings will be unavoidable, it would be better to have them in outdoor venues like gardens or lawns and for shorter periods of time.

Once the gifts or items arrive at your homes, never forget to disinfect them first. If possible, you can leave them for at least 5 hours up to 24 hours before taking them inside and opening them.It has been normal for us to wear face masks and face shields whenever we go outside. However, this should also be practiced whenever we hold small family gatherings in households.
