This Holiday Season - Stay Safe, Stay Home!
New York City is encouraging all New Yorkers to not travel during this holiday season.
With the number of new COVID-19 cases rising in NYC to rates we have not seen since April, we need everyone to do their part to help stop the spread.
If you must travel, please plan ahead and take all recommended safety precautions. More information is available here.
To stay connected with loved ones this season please consider virtual parties or small, distanced outdoor gatherings. Tips from NYC Health available here.
