These guidelines are based on information we have to date; if something changes (e.g. if a bad new variant starts spreading) we may have to update them.<\/p>\n
The Overarching Principle: We ask all participants to use their best judgement to keep themselves and others safe. <\/strong><\/p>\n Based on this principle, here are the guidelines.<\/p>\n We encourage and support masking<\/strong>, especially indoors, but it is not mandatory. We\u2019ll have disposable masks freely available to all.<\/p>\n We will have a number of rapid antigen tests available<\/strong> at Mindcamp for participants who feel they may have been exposed to COVID. (Because that number is limited, please bring your own test kit if you can \u2014 that would be a great help.)<\/p>\n Take advantage of the outdoors<\/strong> for socializing or offering sessions. There will be at least one rainproof gazebo, and there are numerous comfortable outdoor spots to enjoy a chat \u2014 not to mention the beach!<\/p>\n If you feel symptoms<\/strong> after you’ve arrived, you will isolate temporarily and test. If symptoms persist (or you test positive), you will need to make arrangements to go off-site to recover. We will help you with all of this.<\/p>\n Please take extra care to avoid exposure in the two weeks prior to Mindcamp.<\/strong> Be mindful of the investment you and others have made to come to this retreat!\u00a0Here are some suggestions:<\/p>\n Please note that these are suggestions, not rules.<\/strong> We are trusting you all to use your best judgement, and to be considerate of others.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s some of the things we considered in making these decisions:<\/p>\n Current government guidelines<\/strong> in Ontario do not require masking or vaccination. Note that 87% of eligible Ontario residents are fully vaccinated.<\/p>\n Unifor is well designed to minimize respiratory contagion.<\/strong> Shared indoor environments are large and well-ventilated, and there is ample opportunity to move around outside when weather permits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" These guidelines are based on information we have to date; if something changes (e.g. if a bad new variant starts spreading) we may have to update them.
