Have a Safe Thanksgiving
From the Centers for Disease Control (CDC):
More than 1 million COVID-19 cases were reported in the United States over the last 7 days.
As cases continue to increase rapidly across the United States, the safest way to celebrate Thanksgiving is to celebrate at home with the people you live with.
Gatherings with family and friends who do not live with you can increase the chances of getting or spreading COVID-19 or the flu.
Se notificaron más de 1 millón de casos de COVID-19 en los Estados Unidos en los últimos 7 días.
Mientras los casos sigan incrementándose rápidamente en los Estados Unidos, la forma más segura de celebrar el Día de Acción de Gracias es hacerlo en casa, con las personas que viven con usted.
Los encuentros con familiares y amigos que no viven con usted pueden aumentar las probabilidades de contraer o propagar el COVID-19 o la influenza.
在过去7天内，美国报告了超过100万例COVID-19病例。
随着美国各地病例的迅速增加，庆祝感恩节最安全的方式是与同住者一起在家庆祝。
