COVID Testing and Protocols

The following Covid-19 protocols will be in place for the 2022 SCPAB Annual Meeting:

Covid Testing

All guests attending the 2022 SCPAB Annual Meeting are required to take a rapid antigen Covid test before arriving at the meeting on Sunday, as close to the meeting time as possible.

  • For guests staying at the hotel, Covid test kits will be placed in your room prior to check in. Please make sure to check with the front desk if they are not there. Please take a test before coming to the Simons Foundation office on the first day of the meeting. 
  • For guests not staying at the hotel, please arrange to get tested on your own. The Simons Foundation will reimburse you for any expenses incurred with obtaining a test following the meeting.

Vaccination and Photo ID
Anyone accessing Simons Foundation offices must be fully vaccinated (meaning you have received your final vaccine shot and completed the 14-day inoculation period). On Sunday, all guests will be required to show their photo ID and an acceptable WHO approved proof of vaccination at time of entry:

  • Physical vaccine card/certificate received upon completion of vaccine series
  • Image/copy of vaccine card/certificate received upon completion of vaccine series
  • Electronic NYS Excelsior Pass via 'NYS Wallet' mobile application (for New York State residents only)

On Monday and Tuesday, all guests will be required to show their name badge to gain entry to the office along with their daily health screening form. If you forget your name badge, you will need to provide photo ID and proof of vaccination again.

Health Screening Form

In order to protect the health of our staff and guests, we ask that you please complete a health screening form each day before entering our offices. This form will be sent to you on Friday evening, April 1st, and every evening for the duration of the meeting.

When completing the questionnaire, the email that you provide will be used strictly to send you an affirmation that the completed form has been received and that you are cleared to enter the premises. Please save that email as you will be asked to show it to security or reception upon arrival each day.
