The World Health Organization is already advising families to forgo Christmas gatherings.
The “safest bet” for some families will be not to have family gatherings this Christmas in order to stop the spread of the coronavirus, said Maria Van Kerkhove, the WHO’s technical lead for COVID-19.
“In some situations, the difficult decision not to have a family gathering is the safest bet,” Kerkhove told a virtual briefing in Geneva.
