Currently, about 65% of those eligible in the United States are fully vaccinated.
When it comes to celebrations, the CDC recommends keeping them virtual or limited to people you live with.
If you're seeing people you haven't seen in a while, it is recommended to celebrate outside or distanced.
Other tips include get vaccinated. If you're not, hold off on flying and wear a mask.
It's also important to keep your home well ventilated for indoor celebrations.
