Below is a statement regarding in-person events hosted by the Alliance for Health Policy.
As of March 2023
The Alliance for Health Policy’s (“Alliance”) greatest priority is the health and safety of all participants, special guests, and staff. We are taking precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in line with the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control’s (CDC) recommendations. State, federal and local guidelines are also considered to ensure a clean, safe, and healthy environment is provided.
We ask that all attendees attest when the register for an in-person Alliance event that they a) are fully vaccinated against COVID-19, as defined by the CDC, or b) will complete a rapid antigen or PCR test within 24 hours prior to the event to confirm negative status. Masks are not required.
As we monitor the situation prior to each event, the Alliance reserves the right to change these guidelines as needed.
Any questions or concerns may be directed to info@allhealthpolicy.org.
