Many traditional Halloween activities can be high-risk for spreading viruses, but there are several safer alternatives. If you have COVID-19 or if you may have been exposed to someone with the virus, you should not participate in in-person Halloween activities and should not give out candy to trick-or-treaters.
Here are some low-risk alternatives:
- Carve or decorate pumpkins outside, at a safe distance, with friends and then display them
- Decorate your room or floor
- Hold a virtual Halloween costume contest
- Have a Halloween movie night with the people you live with.
More information and additional activities are available on the CDC website.
