Twitter explodes after MSNBC health columnist calls to cancel Thanksgiving, postpone Christmas
Dr. Esther Choo said the change would help people avoid holiday travel and bad Christmas sweaters

Prominent Twitter users erupted into a series of arguments after an MSNBC health columnist floated the idea of canceling Thanksgiving and moving winter holidays to prevent illness.
On Wednesday, Dr. Esther Choo, a professor of emergency medicine at Oregon Health and Science University, gave her thoughts on how to prevent respiratory illnesses, such as COVID-19 and RSV, during the holiday season.
She tweeted that "for so many reasons" Thanksgiving should be canceled, winter holidays should be moved to the summer, and winter holidays should be more "hygge," or cozy.
Additionally, Choo touted several benefits of such a move, including a lack of "bad holiday-themed sweaters," the avoidance of snowed-in winter holiday travel, and the fact that you simply don’t have to "endure" Thanksgiving.
