Halloween Safety Guidelines Announced For The City of Buffalo
Halloween is just a couple of weeks away, children all over Western New York are ready with their costumes and excited for trick-or-treating. According to WIVB, parents are wondering if their children are gonna be able to go out this year.
Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown said, according to WIVB
I plan to issue guidelines with an abundance of caution for familes. There are experts that are concerned that we could see a spike in COVID-19 cases as we move into the colder weather.

One of the best ideas I would give parents and teenagers is to try to go to only the houses that you know.
