Burks Urges Thanksgiving Travelers to Get Tested for COVID-19
(CNN)As millions of people in the United States travel back home from the Thanksgiving holiday, daily Covid-19 hospitalizations are inching closer to 100,000 — the highest they’ve ever been.
Now health experts are asking those who gathered with people outside their households to get tested.
“If your family traveled, you have to assume that you were exposed and you became infected,” White House coronavirus task force coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx told CBS on Sunday.
She also recommended those older than 65 get tested immediately if they develop any symptoms.
