Public health officials have been warning people about the dangers of holding a traditional Thanksgiving dinner in light of the surging number of COVID-19 cases across the country.

For example, the Cheyenne-Laramie County Health Department recently issued this warning:

"Wyoming remains in the top ten U.S. states with the highest rates of COVID-19 spread," the agency said in a news release. "The large number of ill people along with high spread rates positions a traditional Thanksgiving as an incredibly risky situation."
