Earlier, the World Health Organization (WHO) advised residents of Europe in connection with the coronavirus pandemic to celebrate the New Year and Christmas on the streets. If the holidays are held indoors, you should not gather too many people and ventilate the rooms, which will reduce the risk of infection. However, WHO recalled that such celebrations, even in small groups, are dangerous.
