Santa and H1N1
After careful research and thoughtful analysis, Santa is arriving with the white gloves; however, takes them off and uses hand sanitizer to help control the spead of the flu. By offering sanitizer for children waiting and by spraying Santa’s hands for each visitor, we are offering the best all-round solution.
The Washington Post article “CDC connects H1N1, severe bacterial infections” helped shape our policy. In a related article on Daily Record.COM, “Santa Walter is president of the Santas of Northern California, and he’s advising members to ditch the traditional white gloves in favor of frequent hand-washing and applications of spray sanitizer.” Another publication, CourierPostOnline.com, asks, “Santa at high risk for H1N1?”
We at Santa For Events are doing our best to avoid spreading N1H1. We hope for a Merry Christmas for everyone, especially any who come down sick during this season.
