“Particularly if you’re vaccinated you can get out there” trick-or-treating, Fauci told CNN’s State of the Union.

“You’re outdoors for the most part, at least when my children were out there doing trick-or-treating [they were], and enjoy it. I mean this is a time that children love, it’s a very important part of the year for children.

“So … if you’re not vaccinated, again, think about it, that you’ll add an extra degree of protection to yourself and your children and your family and your community. So it’s a good time to reflect on why it’s important to get vaccinated, but go out there and enjoy Halloween as well as the other holidays that will be coming up.”
