Thank you for your contribution & commitment to following these guidelines.

KAIA follows:

• The Big “I” COVID-19 Response & Protocols
• CDC guidance for people who are fully vaccinated - to maximize protection from the Delta variant and prevent possibly spreading it to others, wear a mask indoors in public if you are in an area of substantial or high transmission.
• Due to our cooperative agreement with the meeting facilities, if you haven't been fully vaccinated, a mask covering both the nose and mouth will be required at all times while inside the hotel unless eating or drinking, or while in your guest room.
  • In general, people are considered to be fully vaccinated:
    • 2 weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or
    • 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson's  Janssen vaccine
• For those who haven't been fully vaccinated, state and municipal health guidelines stress that, whenever possible, all persons should leave at least 6 feet (approximately 2 meters) of space to the person closest to them.
