• Do not attend the conference if you or any close contact has symptoms that could be consistent with a “cold” or any other respiratory infection and leave the conference if you develop such symptoms.
• Use at-home/antigen/rapid tests before you arrive. We will be providing free additional rapid tests as supplies permit to anyone who needs them.

• Attendees will have access to the conference content online if they are unable to attend in person due to illness or a positive COVID-19 test.
• While these plans are in place to prevent the spread of respiratory infections at the conference, we recognize that the risk of infection cannot be completely eliminated. Everyone who attends Neurovascular Connections 2024 Conference does so at their own risk.
