West Virginia issues Thanksgiving, Christmas guidance during pandemic

The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources has issued guidance for celebrating and traveling during the fall and winter holiday seasons.

“If you are going to see your family, we do recommend a few things, such as to only stick around immediate family members,” WVDHHS Commissioner Dr. Ayne Amjad said in a statement. “A few other things to mention are, if you recently had COVID-19 and you may still be symptomatic, or if you think you’ve been around someone who may have COVID-19, do not go around any family members.”
