The Best Halloween Face Masks That’ll Make Spooky Social Distancing Easier This Year
Needless to say, that Halloween is still going to look quite different than pre-COVID years. And while many are vaccinated and ready to take to the streets, COVID-19 and social distancing guidelines are going to make standard Halloween celebratory festivities that involve being in close proximity to others look different. Is it impossible? Absolutely not. Can we still celebrate Halloween? For sure, we just have to take the right precautions.
While some Halloween costumes already have masks incorporated into them, you’re going to want to make sure you’re fully protected with the best Halloween face mask to protect against airborne agents and viruses. Some Halloween festivities, like carving jack o’ lanterns, decorating your house, watching scary movies and gorging yourself on Halloween treats are COVID-friendly and won’t require too much shifting. Even though we’re not quite at the point where we can indulge in an apple-bobbing contest, we can still get in the spirit of the holiday. What better way to do that in the current health climate than with Halloween face masks.
