As Massachusetts residents plan for the Thanksgiving holiday, the state offers the following considerations to help keep our friends, families, and communities safe during COVID-19.  If you host a holiday celebration, keep it small.  If you are considering travel, be aware of Massachusetts travel orders.If you participate in a celebration, follow public health guidance.

Any time you’re near people you don’t live with: 

• Wear a mask when not eating or drinking
• Wash your hands often with soap and water
• Stay at least six feet apart from others 
• Consider if those around you may be at higher risk of severe illness from COVID-19, such as older adults or those with certain medical conditions, and take extra precautions
• If gathering indoors, improve ventilation by opening windows and doors
