Christmas this year comes amid the COVID-19 pandemic, which has infected over 78 million in the world, killing over a million.
As the World Health Organisation has urged citizens to minimise their celebrations, festivities have gone virtual, including the Santa Clause meet and greet.
Several non-profit organisations have also come up with events where Santa Claus hands out essential items like food and hygiene products, replacing the traditional gift exchange during the holidays
