Halloween is just around the corner, but like so many other special occasions and events, the 2020 edition of the spookiest day of the year will have to look a little different due to the coronavirus pandemic.
 
Many traditional Halloween activities pose a high risk for contracting or spreading COVID-19 because they typically bring together large groups of people that do not live in the same household.
 
“While Halloween activities must change, we still want people to be able to dress up and have fun for the holiday,” said Wilma J. Wooten, M.D., M.P.H., County public health officer. “Maybe plan a virtual or drive-by costume party that lets you celebrate while keeping up the fight against the spread of the virus.”

“First responders experienced a scene unlike anything they had ever encountered and worked under extreme conditions to provide emergency aid, put out fires, and move people to safety,” he said, noting that what was at the time the deadliest air crash in the country represents an important chapter in local history.
