NAHSL is dedicated to ensuring to the best of our ability the health and safety of convention participants. To that end, we ask that all convention attendees, exhibitors, and visitors attest to the following:
I will comply with CDC guidelines.
I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 with a WHO-approved vaccine or will have tested negative for COVID-19 within 48 hours of the conference.
I will follow restrictions and recommendations for both Portland, Maine and my point of origin, including any testing requirements for individuals traveling from outside the region.
I will follow any safety guidelines or restrictions implemented by NAHSL or the meeting venues during the conference.
I will abide by all guidance and recommendations from Portland, Maine regarding the wearing of masks in public spaces that are in effect at the time of the conference.
I agree not to attend the convention if I experience any COVID-19 symptoms (including fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath, new loss of taste or smell, headache, or nausea or vomiting) or learn that I have tested positive for COVID-19. If I begin experiencing such symptoms or learn that I have tested positive for COVID-19 while attending the conference, I will leave the meeting immediately. I also agree not to attend the convention if I learn that I have recently come into close contact (defined as being within six feet for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or longer, over a 24-hour period) with an individual who has tested positive for COVID-19. If I learn of such close contact while attending the conference, I agree to leave the meeting immediately.
I agree to cooperate with any contact tracing efforts in the event I test positive for or am exposed to COVID-19 while attending the conference.
Masking is encouraged to help keep us all safe and healthy. We will have a limited supply of masks at the registration desk and encourage you to bring extra masks to help us maintain this practice.
We will continue to monitor information and guidance from national and local authorities and will regularly update you on any amendments we may need to make. Thank you for your help in keeping your fellow attendees and the members of the venue staff safe.
