We talked a lot about how we (Veracity Athletics) are keeping you as safe as possible when you come to class. Let’s talk a little about how you can help us, help you as well. (Circular helpfulness = one way ticket to Kumbayaville)
- Please do not take any in person class if you have any of the typical symptoms of COVID-19.
- Please notify us if you begin to exhibit symptoms after being in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19.
- Please notify us if you test positive for COVID-19.
The hope is that if any of these apply to you, you would begin a self-administered quarantine and begin planning for testing even before you notify us! You will need a negative test result to re-enter the gym.
Because our RSVP system for classes sets us up for stellar contact tracing, our policy when someone does notify us will be as follows:
Veracity Athletics will reach out each member with an email, text, and app notification (or phone call if anything does not go through) if you were in a class with someone who subsequently exhibited symptoms after being in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 OR who has tested positive for COVID-19.
Quarantine and/or Testing
CDC guidance and NJ Infographics
If you are fully vaccinated, you are not required to get tested or quarantine – as long as you remain asymptomatic.
In order to continue keeping everyone safe, if you have been contacted and you have symptoms OR are not fully vaccinated, you will be asked to refrain from attending classes until one of the following scenarios are met:
1) Provide written proof of a negative COVID-19 viral test result administered a minimum of 5 days from the class in question. *Updated 2011-02-11
2) If you don’t get tested, you can return if you are symptom-free after staying home and self-quarantining for 10 days from the class in question. *Updated 2021-02-11
We would be happy to provide virtual coaching at virtual class pricing as an additional courtesy should you prefer that with any option.
Travel Guidelines
*Updated 2021-04-02 per NJ Travel guidelines
If you are fully vaccinated and travel domestically, you are not required to get tested or quarantine – as long as your remain asymptomatic.
If you are not fully vaccinated and you travel beyond the immediate region (New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Delaware) for more than 24 hours, you will be asked to refrain from attending classes until one of the following scenarios are met:
1) Provide written proof of a negative COVID-19 viral test result administered a minimum of 5 days after travel.
2) If you don’t get tested, you can return if you are symptom-free after staying home and self-quarantining for 10 days after travel.
As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions.
