Foreign Policy Forum COVID-19 Protocol Update March 2022

In light of the evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are amending our health security measures as we continue in-person programming.

As of March 23, 2022, the Cleveland Council on World Affairs will make the following changes to our Foreign Policy Forum COVID-policies.

Proof of vaccination or negative test

• All guests must show either proof of full COVID-19 vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test result upon entry to the event.
• “Fully vaccinated” means that an individual has received BOTH a full course of the first CDC or WHO approved vaccine.
• Those guests who cannot be vaccinated must provide proof of a negative test result received from a completed lab-certified antigen COVID-19 test within 24 hours prior to entering the event or a negative test result received from a completed PCR COVID-19 test within 72 hours prior to entering the venue. The BinaxNOW COVID-19 Home Test (the version requiring a virtual appointment) is an acceptable option. More information about COVID-19 testing is available on local or state Department of Health websites.
• Guests may present proof of vaccination or negative test on paper or a smartphone.

Masking and Social Distancing Options

• Masks are optional during Foreign Policy Forums
• Practice social distancing, as you feel comfortable
• Advance ticket purchases are required; No walk-ins allowed
• Credit card payment only

Stay home if ill

Guests who have been exposed to COVID-19 and/or are experiencing symptoms are asked to remain at home and contact us to request a refund.
