    One thing that parents should be aware of is that if there is COVID-19 transmission happening in their unvaccinated children's schools, the risk that a child might be infected is higher, and a non-symptomatic child can transmit disease. Dr. Scott Halperin, a professor of pediatrics and microbiology immunology at Dalhousie University in Halifax, sug...

    If you have unvaccinated children from different families mixing, the key thing to be aware of is the risk based on what's going on in the local community — whether there are school outbreaks and how many cases there are. "Both sets of parents really need to be very upfront and honest about what's going on in their community and what type of exposu...

    "This is definitely an issue," Chagla said. "If people choose to have gatherings where people are unvaccinated," Smith said, 'they have to realize that there is a greater risk." All three doctors agree that getting together for the holidays is not "essential" and that there is no reason to feel obligated to invite anyone who is choosing not to get ...

    Chagla says at that point, use controls: Make sure no one is symptomatic, open windows, gather outside and assess whether there are people at higher risk of developing severe COVID-19. 1. Risk of death more than 130% higher with delta variant than original COVID virus, research suggests "It's also maybe a good time ... to start talking to people an...

    All three doctors say that no matter where you live, holding your Thanksgiving gathering outside is much safer than indoors. But this being Canada, everyone knows that is not going to be possible for everyone. So if you must gather indoors, open windows whenever possible, make sure there is good ventilation and try to maintain physical distancing. ...

    Given that many Canadian universities have mandated vaccination in residences and for in-class learning, it is probably unnecessary if the student has indeed received both doses of a COVID-19 vaccine. Adding a rapid test the day they come home could provide added reassurance but is probably not necessary.

    At a small gathering of vaccinated friends or family, sharing food around the table is probably fine. As the science around COVID-19 transmission has evolved, early concerns about the disease being spread through touching objects or surfaces has been determined to be far less likely. And so as long as people have washed their hands, passing food di...

    The recommendations from most public health officials this year is to keep celebrations local — or at the very least, within province. "Travel is always going to be a problem because you're mixing in airports, you're mixing on planes," Halperin said. As well, there is a lot of variation right now in terms of case numbers and transmission in differe...

    It's probably safe to have one vaccinated family stay overnight with another. But again, Chagla says, weigh the risk. "The more time you spend with people, the more chance you'll transmit if [COVID-19] is in the room or someone has COVID-19." Vaccination has definitely made gathering a little less risky in many areas of the country this year, but n...
