Will You Take People’s Temperature Before They Come Into Your House for the Holidays?

Having volunteered for some school events I have had to take plenty of temperatures in the past couple months.  That and it seems like everywhere we go today we are getting our temperatures taken to help prevent others from getting sick from COVID.  With the holidays fast approaching the question has been asked, “Will you be taking the temperatures of your holiday guests before you let them in your house?

According to a new survey, three out of 10 people say they plan on taking people’s temperature before they come into their homes over the holidays. Here are some of the other ways people are going to try to keep their holiday events safe this year.

1.  Trying to social distance.

2.  Keeping a tight guest list.

3.  Only having one person serve food and drinks.

4.  Making everyone RSVP.

5.  Only hosting events outdoors.
