Niles Rotary Club COVID-19 Safety Procedures

While participating in events held or sponsored by Nile Rotary (the “Club”), consistent with CDC guidelines, participants are encouraged to practice hand hygiene, “social distancing” and wear face coverings to reduce the risks of exposure to COVID-19. Because COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is spread from person-to person contact and through air droplets, the Club has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19. However, the Club cannot guarantee that its participants, volunteers, partners, or others in attendance will not become infected with COVID-19. By attending a Club event, you certify that you do not fall into any of the following categories:

1. Individuals who currently or within the past fourteen (14) days have experienced any symptoms associated with COVID-19, which include:
   COVID-19 Symptoms, per ACPHD, effective August 5, 2021

2. Individuals who have traveled at any point in the past fourteen (14) days either internationally or to a community in the U.S. that has experienced or is experiencing sustained community spread of COVID-19; or

3. Individuals who believe that they may have been exposed to a confirmed or suspected case
of COVID-19 or have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and are not yet cleared as noncontagious
by state or local public health authorities or the health care team responsible for their treatment.

DUTY TO SELF-MONITOR:
Participants at live Club events/activities agree to self-monitor for signs and symptoms of
COVID-19 (symptoms typically include fever, cough, and shortness of breath) and, contact the
club’s Covid Response Chair, Margo Hood at [email protected] or 510-684-9640 if he/she
experiences symptoms of COVID-19 within 14 days after participating in a live Club
event/activity.

STEPS THE CLUB WILL TAKE
Once notified of any exposure or positive test, the Covid Response Chair will work with the
reporting person to identify any persons who may have been in contact or exposed to that
individual while at a Niles event. Those individuals will be contacted privately and made aware of the situation with a recommendation for testing. The club as a whole will be notified that an event has occurred and that all individuals who were directly involved were notified. Should anyone feel concerned or think they may have been compromised, they will be advised to contact the club’s Covid Response Chair, Margo Hood at [email protected] or 510-684-9640. Club leadership will respect medical and privacy rights of all participants.
