As Thanksgiving and Christmas approach, so does the government grinch in the form of unauthorized and unlawful dictates coming from Executive Branch Governors, Secretaries of Health, etc. With dictates in the form of ‘guidelines’ to ‘orders’ of various forms, government seems bent on squashing Thanksgiving, locking down families, and in some states like PA to even wear masks in your own home if someone visits who is not a regular member of that household.

From a medical perspective, has anything changed in the COVID virus that warrants a move to lock down, increase the wearing of face masks or limit family gatherings?
