All attendees must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19:

• A completed primary vaccination series for everyone 5 years of age and older, which means either:
  • Two doses of an mRNA vaccine such as Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna, or
  • One dose of Johnson and Johnson
  In addition, for adults and for kids ages 12-17, a booster shot is required if enough time has passed between completing a primary vaccination series and Moondance registration confirmation (April 1 at the earliest) – Either:
  • Five months after the last mRNA (Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna) vaccine or
  • Two months after the J&J vaccine

Forms of vaccination proof that will be accepted:

• A photo, PDF, or screenshot of a completed CDC COVID Vaccination Record Card, or other formal state COVID immunization record, or
• A digital QR code provided by certain states (e.g. New York, California) or in EHR systems like MyChart, compliant with the SMART Health Card Framework.

Allowed exemptions from vaccinations:

• As of right now, those under 5 years of age cannot be vaccinated; those kids are welcome with their fully-vaccinated families.
• A very limited number of medical exemptions may be granted. Anyone applying for an exemption must provide supporting documentation from their health care provider. We may request additional documentation, and may require other mitigation strategies as a condition of admission.
• No religious, moral, or political exemptions will be allowed.
• Negative Covid tests and history of past Covid infection will not be allowed as a vaccine exemption.

Your medical privacy:

• All vaccination proof will be held in confidence, will be used solely for processing Moondance registrations, and will be deleted after use. Any medical information voluntarily provided in support of an application for a medical exemption will be shared only with appropriately-skilled professionals solely for determining the exemption status, and will be deleted after use.
• As a private event, we are asking you for your consent to see the medical record pertaining to vaccination, and you have the option to decline. This is a voluntary disclosure, which is allowed under medical privacy laws. You may withhold this information, and thus choose not to attend Moondance 2022.
