John,

The holiday travel season is here -- right as COVID-19 cases are hitting record levels across the country.

The safest thing to do for the holidays is to stay close to home. In fact, the CDC has advised Americans not to travel for Thanksgiving to avoid adding to the spike in infections.

Do you know someone who is traveling for the holidays? Bloomberg Philanthropies Public Health lead and epidemiologist Dr. Kelly Henning has evaluated the risks and shared her expert perspectives.

Watch and share our Road to Recovery video with tips for reducing risks during holiday travel:

The U.S. has already seen increases in cases after major holidays. We need to do everything we can to stop the spread of COVID-19 -- not only to protect ourselves, but to prevent the community infections that can endanger others and put even more stress on our health care systems.

Stay home if you can this holiday season. If you or someone you know needs to travel, take two minutes to learn how to travel with less risk. Watch the video, then share with anyone you know who could use guidance on travel during the pandemic:
