How to face visiting relatives under the epidemic situation?

During the novel coronavirus outbreak, staying at home was the safest thing to do. In addition to restraining yourself, you should learn to refuse visits from friends and relatives. First, friends and relatives can be informed of the serious epidemic situation through WeChat, QQ, telephone and other communication methods, so that they should not go out, let alone have dinner to celebrate the New Year. Let relatives and friends fully understand the severity of the epidemic, and even show them real data and articles written by major official media to increase credibility. By doing so, relatives and friends will know the terrible novel coronavirus this time and will not go out to visit relatives again.

In addition, we must maintain a gentle and firm attitude, politely refuse the visits of relatives and friends on the phone, and don't alienate them. At the same time, we also need to be firm, don't make fun of ourselves and our loved ones' lives, and don't let our loved ones come to pay a New Year call because they are embarrassed to refuse. This behavior is very dangerous.

If you meet relatives who are going to enter your home for the New Year at the door, it is hard to drive them away. You can put on a mask and invite them in. If you have extra masks, you can put them on your relatives and explain the recent epidemic to them. Don't save it for dinner. After a simple chat, you can ask them to leave and tell them to have a good meal after the epidemic has passed.

Another way is to wear a mask and refuse relatives to visit, even if relatives have already arrived at the door. Of course, this is the safest way to avoid direct contact, but it seems to hurt feelings, so be sure to call your relatives in advance and tell them not to come to pay New Year greetings.

This year's Spring Festival, without visiting relatives and friends, fireworks and bustling streets, is an unusual Spring Festival and a Spring Festival full of silent smoke. Where we can't see, countless people are fighting against novel coronavirus. The only thing we can do is to stay indoors and reduce the risk of cross infection.
