Are Houston doctors gathering for Thanksgiving? We asked them.

Houston Chronicle, November 18, 2021

Dr. Megan Berman, an internist at UTMB’s Sealy Institute for Vaccine Sciences, has two partially vaccinated kids, ages 8 and 9. The family skipped their usual Thanksgiving flight to Wisconsin this year, opting instead for a drive to grandma and grandpa’s house in Texas. “If it was just me, I would be comfortable getting on a flight, knowing my risk is really low as a vaccinated person,” she said. “But we are going to be driving this year. It’s safer for the kids.”
