While many recognize Super Bowl Sunday as a veritable national holiday, San Bernardino County health officials are urging residents to avoid behaviors that could lead to another spike in COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations. Ernest Figueroa has more information…
The Centers for Disease Control notes that the safest way to celebrate the Super Bowl is to gather virtually or only with the people in your own household. The county’s public health director echoes that advice; Corwin Porter urges residents to take steps to avoid further spread of the virus.
Safe options include outdoor gatherings where guests can view the game on a big screen while staying 6 feet apart, or a virtual watch party, which might include creating a text group so you can comment on the game in real time.
While these options are not ideal, Porter reminds residents the pandemic is still raging. The more cautious everyone is, the sooner we can get back to normal.
