How do I stay safe while meeting people in person?
You can encourage healthy decision making by making sure those you oversee have accurate information about COVID-19 transmission and risks. You can also help find safe ways to connect online or outside while observing social distancing. Outdoor gatherings can be fun even in winter. Perhaps we can all learn from the Scandinavian saying: “There is no bad weather, only bad clothing!” Holding in-person, indoor events with people outside your household is strongly discouraged.
Follow these simple rules when planning an in-person event
Check current local guidelines and laws about social gatherings
Social distance and wear masks
Meet outdoors when possible
Be clear and discuss expectations about staying safe before the in-person meeting
