They have highlighted activities categorized from low to high danger– keeping in mind standard trick-or-treating as a high danger endeavor this year. Noted as moderately dangerous is “one way” trick-or-treating where individually wrapped treats are lined up for households to get and go.

So it would be better for corona,” the kid composed in the letter shared by the governor on social media.
