The Lumistella Company, home of The Elf on the Shelf®, has received a verified statement from Santa Claus regarding the matter: "All Scout Elves are 100% healthy, and since they are magical beings from the North Pole, they do not get human sicknesses and do not need to quarantine or wear masks; But they do like to set a good example for humans and may choose to model safety protocols for their families. In a year when many are longing for a comforting return to the celebrations of the season, Santa's Scout Elves are ready to bring joy and good cheer to all!"

For families who want their elf to wear a mask, please visit the Santa-approved Frolic and Frost blog for a quick and easy guide that will help them with their visit. There are patterns for elf masks, elf quarantine ideas and even a little letter for elves to leave out for their families.
