Large and small parties spread throughout the US despite Covid-19

After the lockdown period, people across the US gathered and celebrated jubilantly. Some people even hire event planning services to make their party more spectacular.
Laurence Anthony (living in New York, USA) and his wife (37 years old) organized a vaccine-themed celebration party to celebrate with friends.

Anthony and his wife invited 9 people to a luxurious gala dinner at their apartment. Snacks such as fruit jelly are contained in large syringes, while drinks are poured into boxes labeled Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson – 3 companies that provide Covid-19 vaccines, according to NY Post. “We waited too long to meet everyone. It’s time to have fun again,” Anthony said. The party was planned by celebrity event organizer Amanda Orso. Orso said she has coordinated similar events in other cities like Miami, Florida. “It’s not too ostentatious or cheesy, but elevated to a more elaborate party,” Orso said.

Like Laurence Anthony, Karina Freedman (51 years old, from Manhasset, Long Island), owner of two skin care clinics, also plans a “vaccination party” for mid-May 2021. “Everyone can finally get together and celebrate. Surely everyone will be very happy,” Freedman shared. Freedman plans to give attendees gift bags containing healing crystals with the wishes “Be happy, stay healthy, good luck”. While many people hire event planning services to assist with planning, others only do small parties with relatives and friends. Leticia Rossi and Guilherme Baglioli (living in Austin, Texas) moved into a new home in January 2020. Due to the pandemic, the young couple could not hold a housewarming party. When their areas reopened from March 10 according to Governor Greg Abbott’s decision, Rossi and Baglioli joined a group of close friends for a dinner at home. All had previously been vaccinated. “We finally got to hug and talk to each other. It’s good that everyone is at peace,” Rossi wrote on his personal Instagram page. However, experts say that gathering and partying at this time is too early and risks a stronger outbreak. Although vaccination has been widely conducted and the number of new cases has decreased, the Covid-19 epidemic is still raging in many places across the United States, according to The Guardian. In early March 2021, despite criticism from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Alabama, Texas and Mississippi still decided to lift epidemic prevention restrictions, according to the CDC.

Quite a few people said they were “not in the at-risk group”. Therefore, they are not concerned about Covid-19. And in Las Vegas, after a long closure, pool parties are “covering” again as more and more people are vaccinated. “Four months ago, Las Vegas was like a ghost city. Now pool party participants have to distance themselves. We are required to wear masks outside the pool area,” Alyssa Waggoner (25 years old) told Insiders.
