  2. If an attendee is up-to-date with their Covid-19 vaccinations but is NOT YET ELIGIBLE for the booster, the attendee will NOT be required to produce a negative covid test result;

     

  3. If an attendee is vaccinated, is ELIGIBLE for the booster but has NOT received the booster, the attendee will be required to produce a negative Covid-19 test result (within 48 hours of entering the Moscone Center for a PCR test; within 24 hours for an antigen test);

     

  4. If an attendee is not vaccinated for Covid-19, the attendee will be required to produce a negative Covid test result (within 48 hours of entering the Moscone Center for a PCR test; within 24 hours for an antigen test).

     

  5. International attendees or others who have received a Covid-19 vaccination that is not recognized by the CDC will be required to produce a negative Covid test result (within 48 hours of entering the Moscone Center for a PCR test; within 24 hours for an antigen test).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • Home testing kits WILL NOT be accepted as proof of a negative Covid test.  As a convenience for attendees, Covid-19 testing will be provided from the San Francisco Marriott Marquis on Saturday, April 9 and Sunday, April 10. Attendees who opt for on-site testing will be responsible for an administrative fee of $45 USD. Testing is not limited to the RIMS designated Marriott Marquis testing site. Attendees may also provide a proof of a negative test from an official testing center or laboratory.
  • Attendees who opt for on-site testing should recognize that they will not be admitted into the Moscone Convention Center until the lab confirms a negative result. Please plan accordingly.
  • RIMS will not provide conference registration fee or accommodation refunds to individuals who test positive.

  • Private businesses in San Francisco may have their own vaccination and/or masking requirements. Please plan accordingly.  
  • Masks are strongly recommended.

     

    RIMS has employed a third-party vendor that specializes in conducting health screenings, as well as validating the authenticity of vaccine documentation.  Registrants will receive an email to confirm their vaccination status in March.

     

    RIMS Board of Directors and staff will continue to monitor the Covid-19 global pandemic and its impact on both domestic and international populations. Its leadership reserves the right to amend this vaccination policy accordingly.
