Christmas and Wreath. How is it supposed to work? Canceling the family celebration is an option. Much Swiss cheese the other. A planning aid.
Christmas offers everything the coronavirus likes: closeness, exuberance, maybe even singing. People travel all over the country to finally get back together. The population is mixing again. On the one hand geographically. On the other hand, in all age groups. The whole family is so close that they can go another year without them.
From a virological point of view: delicate.
In other words: the ideal time to rethink Christmas. You could make Holy Night what it used to be: a silent night. Every home celebrates for itself. This avoids problems with viruses.
Do you still want to celebrate with your family? Sure, there are good reasons for that too. The good news: the measures that we have been practicing for a few months also work at Christmas.
Here are 5 implementation ideas:
1. Pre-quarantine: If all the guests give up social contacts for 10 days before the party, you can celebrate without worry. If feasible, a valuable contribution.
2. It is better to celebrate twice on a small scale than once on a large scale. The smaller the society, the lower the risk of infection.
3. Distance: The famous 1.5 meters limit the 2 most important transmission routes: body contact and drops of saliva.
But it takes space for distance. And several tables. Ideally one for each home.
4. Now ventilate after each cycle. Because when you speak, the aerosols get into the air, these particularly small droplets of saliva. The only thing that helps is regular ventilation.
Of course, you can also celebrate outdoors. There is no need for ventilation. But the distance must remain.
5. The mask helps. This applies both outdoors and indoors. This applies to both adults and children. We have long been used to them in public life. Now we can also set it private. Because it works there too. If you also want to celebrate with grandparents or other people from risk groups, she can make a meeting possible.
Finally, some good news and some less good. Good things first, and that’s where Swiss cheese comes in – its slices are often perforated. But if you put multiple panels on top of each other, no more air can get through. The same applies to wreath measurements at Christmas. Each measure has its own weak points. Christmas party with mask: difficult. But if you combine several measures, the coronavirus will have a much more difficult time.
However, it is essential that the cheese slices do not become more and more leaky as the night progresses. Don’t let your guests interpret the rules more generously with each glass of wine.
Do you have any concerns?
Then there is the option «Holy Night»: «Silent Night».
