infectious disease duty of care
infectious disease duty of care - JULY 2023
For the purpose of this duty of care, infectious disease includes: COVID-19, Influenza, Mpox, etc.
Other Expected Behaviors:
Back to Camp Frozen Chozen
In keeping with AHA’s duty of care and our responsibility as an event host, AHA is guided by recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and will abide by the legal mandates of the destination city and state at the time of the 2023 Camp Frozen Chozen.
Due to the recent CDC guidance update regarding COVID-19, AHA will no longer require proof of vaccination or negative COVID-19 tests in order to attend CFC.
However, all participants are STRONGLY encouraged to (1) stay “up to date” with their COVID-19 vaccinations including any boosters, and (2) obtain a negative COVID-19 PCR test or rapid antigen test prior to attending CFC.
Coming together in person has numerous benefits, not the least of which are solidifying and showing care for our community. By attending the Camp, participants accept responsibility to act in the best interests of their health, the health of others who attend, and the communities to which they will return after CFC.
*AHA/ABDC’s Infectious Disease Duty of Care is subject to change at any time. All changes will be updated on this page.

As such, participants will:
1. Follow the CDC guidance, “Isolation and Precautions for People with (or exposed to) COVID-19,” found at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/isolation.html.
2. Not participate with COVID-19 symptoms
3. Depart the Event if COVID-19 symptoms develop
AHA reserves the right to update this safety policy should the destination city and state’s COVID-19 community level change. When the community level is “high,” the CDC recommends that people wear masks for all indoor events. We ask that all attendees respect participants’ personal choices with respect to wearing a mask even if others do not wear one. Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated.
AHA will continue to monitor and update safety precautions for Events and coordinate with trusted national resources, state and local public health agencies, and venues. AHA reserves the right to modify these policies and procedures at any time.
