Holiday Safety Help prevent the spread while you get festive this year — get vaccinated against COVID-19 to enjoy a safer holiday season. Gathering with others increases the risk of COVID-19, especially if not everyone is vaccinated. Try safer holiday activities, such as virtual parties, enjoying outside holiday decorations or shopping online. If you meet up with others, keep it small, get tested before you go and keep your plate to yourself. Travel may involve crowds and going to places with high levels of COVID-19. If you are not fully vaccinated, avoid travel. Everyone who is traveling should get tested before they leave the city and before they return home. Also, wear a mask, follow CDC travel guidance and stay at a hotel when possible. Tips for a Safer Holiday Season (PDF) Watch: Commissioner Chokshi Holiday Public Service Announcement There is still COVID-19 transmission in New York City and around the U.S. This is largely due to the spread of the more contagious delta variant and the large number of people who are still unvaccinated. The delta variant of the virus is more than twice as contagious as the original virus. It may also be more likely to cause severe illness and to reinfect someone who has already had COVID-19. The delta variant is also infecting a higher percentage of young people than previous strains. Vaccination is the most important tool we have to stop the spread, and it has never been easier to get vaccinated. Every unvaccinated person in NYC who is 5 or older can get a free vaccine today at one of hundreds of vaccination sites around the city. New Yorkers can also choose to get in-home vaccination. COVID-19 is not over. Learn more in the pages below about what you can do to help yourself, your family and your community.
