Other Considerations:
Does anyone around me have a chronic health condition, or are over 65 years old?
Be more careful to wear a mask.

Has everyone around me already been infected with COVID-19, or were they vaccinated at least 3 weeks ago?
Still practice caution, you can be reinfected with COVID-19.
