Louisiana Department of Health warns that current COVID regulations mean this Mother’s Day will have to be quite different than usual.
To start Capital Area Regional Medical Director Dawn Marcelle says people looking to deliver some flowers to mom on Sunday should adapt to the new normal.
“When ordering flowers either online or from your favorite florist you can ask that the flowers be set on the porch,” says Marcelle.
Many moms and grandmas are at high risk of severe COVID cases. Marcelle says if your loved one falls into that category consider an alternative way to meet.
“People are doing Zoom meetings and even Zoom brunches where they are cooking in their respective homes and literally sitting together at the virtual table,” says Marcelle.
Marcelle says if meeting in person you’ll need to resist the temptation to hug your mom and maintain six feet of separation. She says you also need to wear a mask.
”Even a cloth face covering that covers your face and your nose. It is to protect you and also to protect mom,” says Marcelle.
