Due to new information regarding the discovery that small household gatherings were increasing the COVID-19 infection rate, Thanksgiving gatherings may have to be downsized this year for the sake of safety. I am very sad to hear this, because Thanksgiving is my favorite time of the year. Being away in college so long has made me homesick and I miss my extended family members.
