As the holiday season unfolds amidst the weariness of Covid, concerns arise about a potential new wave.

According to the CDC, vaccination is crucial for many people, including those previously infected.

Additionally, precautions such as wearing N95 or KN95 masks and self-testing before visiting vulnerable individuals are advised.

While the trajectory is concerning, studies show the XBB vaccine’s effectiveness, albeit with uncertainties about the JN.1 variant.

With the possibility of Covid becoming a seasonal virus, getting vaccinated and staying cautious remain vital this holiday season.
