Deadline: 12:00 PM EST - 11 January
Query:
Hi! I'm a writer at Haven Life, and I'm looking for public
health and mental health experts to provide insight into how to
make Valentine's Day work during COVID.
For example: If you and your significant other are busy parents
who want a night off, is it risky to hire a sitter for your
kids? What if you let your kids stay over with someone in your
quarantine pod (even though we know that many pods are fairly
porous these days)? Is it worth going to a restaurant and trying
to make outdoor dining happen in February, or should you plan a
special meal in your own home?
What if you're dating someone new and you haven't combined
households yet -- are there risks to meeting in-person for a
Valentine's Day date? If you've already been meeting in-person,
are there new risks associated with cold weather, COVID surges,
etc. that you should be aware of?
I'd also be curious on how the vaccine rollout might play into
all of this -- both realistically (in the sense that most people
won't be fully vaccinated yet) and how the vaccine might affect
people's behavior. Will we see more risky behavior simply
because a vaccine exists?
Thank you!
