Memorial Day is usually a weekend that we not only celebrate our fallen soldiers, but it’s also a time that we get together as family and friends while many of us throw something on the grill.
With the “shelter-at-home” orders and social distancing guidelines just now being lifted in many states, people are excited to get out and get together while others are still a little hesitant to start back.
Family physician, Dr. Jen Caudle, advises us to first search for and adhere to your city and state’s social distancing guidelines.
If you’re planning on taking your barbecue to the park or a beach, know that there will likely be local officials enforcing social distancing measures and capping parking at a set capacity.
“No matter what we are allowed to do, remember that social distancing is our best friend in fighting this disease,” reminds Dr. Caudle.
