Say good-bye to Thanksgiving dinners over Zoom. Holiday season family gatherings are finally (relatively) safe again in the age of COVID—provided everyone gets their shots.

“If you’re vaccinated, and especially if you’re boosted, and if you’re making use of rapid home tests, then there should be no reason why people can’t gather,” he told thein a COVID-19 roundtable for Black media. “There should be no reason why people can’t celebrate, there should be no reason why people can’t find community once again during the holidays.

“I think all that advice was good,” said Hafer. “As long as people are vaccinated and boosted, as long as people don’t go out if they don’t feel well [and] they’re taking a rapid test before getting together—makes sense throughout.” “Only now, we updated it to include the most transmissible variants, that is Omicron and all of the different sub variants like BA.2, BA.4, BA.5 and so forth.”
