A top infectious disease expert on Wednesday called on Americans to make a sacrifice and not gather in-person for Thanksgiving, which falls on Nov. 26 this year.
“To the extent possible, keep the gatherings—the indoor gatherings—as small as you possibly can. We all know how difficult that is, because this is such a beautiful, traditional holiday. But by making that sacrifice, you prevent people from getting infected,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci, the longtime head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
