Travel Tips:

• Currently, air travel is not recommended unless you are fully vaccinated.
• At least one week prior to leaving for the conference ensure you have reviewed the current CDC Travel Guidance.
• If for some reason you become ill during the conference, OSAP will provide a list of local sites which provide testing. The expense of any medical care is the responsibility of the individual. Depending on your mode of transportation, if you become ill with COVID-19, travel home may not be possible until you recover CDC What to Do If You Are Sick.
