COVID Guidelines & Protocols
The MSBA is committed to holding a safe event for all participants, and is following all CDC, Federal, State, and Local regulations, as well as venue requirements. As of today, the MSBA encourages attendees to be vaccinated as the CDC notes this is the best way to avoid contracting COVID and preventing serious disease.
In accordance with CDC guidelines, faculty or attendees that have tested positive for COVID within 5 days of their in-person presentation, are experiencing any symptoms consistent with COVID, including fever, cough, sore throat, new loss of taste or smell, or shortness of breath, should not attend the in-person event. If you’ve been exposed to someone with COVID within the ten days prior to LEW but are symptom free per the above criteria, we ask you to mask while in the venue.
These guidelines may change if the CDC or other agencies, or the venue noted above change their recommendations.
