ESA encourages all Branch Meeting attendees to be fully vaccinated and to self-test prior to arriving at your Branch meeting. Free COVID-19 home tests can be obtained at https://special.usps.com/testkits. Additional self-administered tests will be available onsite for anyone who requests one during the meeting.
Each Branch will follow their local ordinances regarding face coverings and vaccination requirements for indoor gatherings. Our expectation is that we will all practice protocols that reflect this “spirit of respect and care” for our community throughout the event.
For additional guidance, please visit https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/gatherings.html
If you are sick, please stay home and contact us at esa@entsoc.org.
