Navigating the Tripledemic: Staying Healthy and Safe During Holiday Gatherings

Doctors are weighing in on whether the tripledemic of flu, RSV, and COVID-19 should deter people from gathering for the holidays. While RSV levels are comparable to previous years, COVID-19 and flu cases are down. Health providers advise using common sense and taking precautions, especially for high-risk individuals. They emphasize the importance of getting vaccinated, as it significantly reduces the risk of contracting these diseases. Overall, doctors believe that the current situation is manageable and that people should not be fearful, but rather grateful for the progress made in fighting the tripledemic.
