(Patty McMurray) Yesterday, during a segment on CBS Morning, panel members discussed ways to keep friends and family from ruining Thanksgiving by spreading COVID to guests in their homes.

“It might be a difficult conversation before people step into your house, to say ‘Wait a minute—where’s your [vaccination]card? What’s your status? Before you walk into my home,” one of the panel members said with a straight face.
Psychologist Lisa Damour shook her head in agreement, as she gave viewers helpful tips about how to make it “fun” for guests while they wait for the test results from a rapid test you should force on them. “This is tough because people are all over on the map on this—but the rapid tests have made this a lot easier, because whatever people’s vaccination status is, we can actually confirm people’s safety on the spot,” she said. “So, if it feels like it’s gonna be weird—make it fun” she added. “And say, ‘we’re going to start with hors d’oeuvres in the garage. You know, we’ll have drinks, we’ll do our rapid tests, and then come on in,’ right?” You can make it playful, make it fun, and then be able to enjoy the holiday because you’re not worried about safety.”
Even the CBS Morning Show guests couldn’t help but laugh at her absurd suggestions.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
