The Scott Administration has clarified its ban on multi-household gatherings in Vermont. The clarification allows those who are in an unsafe environment to take shelter in another household. And it allows outdoor activities, like walks, between two people from separate households with masks and six-foot distancing. This hour, join our weekly health update as we discuss these new allowances and answer your questions for the Vermont Department of Health. Our guest is:

  • Tracy Dolan, deputy commissioner for the Vermont Department of Health
  • Dr. Leah Costello, pediatrician at Timber Lane Pediatrics in South Burlington

Broadcast live on Tuesday, Nov. 24, 2020 at 1 p.m; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
