The Radio City Rockettes sported a new accessory at this Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
The precision dance company, which performs every year at the parade, danced their entire number while wearing masks.
The group sported the masks to meet the parade’s Covid-19 protocols, which were put in place to help avoid the spread of coronavirus as cases continue to surge.
“All participants will be appropriately socially distanced during staging and performances, and required to wear face coverings,” Macy’s said on il suo sito web FAQ about the parade’s safety. “Additional personal protective protocols will be implemented based on the participant’s role.
Though masks were a parade requirement, the performance still took social media by storm, with many praising the dancers for doing a rigorous activity with masks on.
“If the Rockettes can wear a mask in the Macy’s parade… you can wear one in Target for 10 minuti,” ha scritto un utente Twitter.

“If the Rockettes can perform a FLAWLESS dance routine in masks (noses covered and all!) you can wear one to the grocery store,” added another user.
“If the Rockettes can wear masks while they perform in the Macy’s parade, SO CAN YOU,” ha detto un altro utente.
Research published this month by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that mask mandates have actively slowed the spread of Covid-19.
