This year, San Mateo County Health encourages people to choose a safer alternative way to celebrate Halloween and Día de los Muertos, and strongly discourages trick-or-treating. For this reason, it is important to plan early and identify safer options such as pumpkin carving, a scavenger hunt around your home, and a virtual costume contest with friends and family.
If people do decide to gather in person this Halloween, remember that outdoors is always safer than indoors. Plan outdoor activities with a group of less than 12 people, use pre-wrapped treats and avoid sharing food.

萬聖節安全指南
今年,聖馬刁縣衛生局(San Mateo County Health)鼓勵人們選擇一種更安全的方式來慶祝萬聖節和亡靈節,並大力勸阻 ’不給糖就搗蛋’ (trick or treating)。 因此,請及早計劃並確定更安全的選擇,例如南瓜雕刻,在家里四處尋寶,以及與親朋好友進行虛擬服裝比賽。
如果人們決定在這個萬聖節親自聚會,請切記室外始終比室內安全。計劃與少於12人的團體一起戶外活動,預先把零食獨立包裝好並避免分享食物。

Seguridad de Halloween
Este año, San Mateo County Health anima a las personas a elegir una forma alternativa más segura para celebrar Halloween y Día de los Muertos, y desalienta fuertemente el truco o el trato. Por esta razón, es importante planificar temprano e identificar opciones más seguras como tallar calabazas, una búsqueda del Tesoro en su casa, y un concurso de disfraces virtual con amigos y familiares.
Si la gente decide reunirse en persona este Halloween, recuerde que al aire libre siempre es más seguro que en interiores. Planifique actividades al aire libre con un grupo de menos de 12 personas, use golosinas pre-envueltas y evite compartir alimentos.
