HOW THEY AFFECT YOU and WHAT YOU NEED TO DO
The City of Palm Springs will have two COVID-19 mandates in place, which will impact you as an attendee of the Feb. 02-05, 2022, CAFAA Annual Conference event. These mandates also apply to your attending spouse or significant other.
1) Masks are required in all indoor areas of the hotel, i.e., lobby, hallways, meeting rooms, etc. except when eating or drinking.
2) The City of Palm Springs ‘Local Emergency Supplementary Order Regarding Proof of Vaccination Status, or Negative COVID-19 Test for Indoor Dining at Bars and Restaurants’ (August 26, 2021), will be in effect for our event.
This Order requires Bars and Restaurants to require Proof of full vaccination or negative COVID-19 test from patrons who will be removing their face coverings to eat or drink indoors.
We will have 3 indoor eating events. The Hilton Hotel requires Proof of Full Vaccination or if you are unvaccinated, they will require written evidence of a negative COVID-19 test taken on or after 8am on Jan 31, 2022 if checking into the conference on Feb 03, 2022.
PROOF OF FULL VACCINATION includes:
- COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card (issued by the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or WHO Yellow Card), which includes the name of the person vaccinated, type of vaccine provided, and date last date administered.

VACCINATION EXEMPTION: you are exempt from the vaccination requirement of the Order by providing to the bar/restaurant one of the following:
- A statement (which may be verbal) that you have declined the COVID-19 vaccination based on religious belief, or
- A statement (which may be verbal) that you are excused due to a medical reason. You do not need to state the underlying medical condition or disability, only the fact that there is a qualifying medical reason.
IF YOU ARE UNVACCINATED, whether based on either Exemption above, or for any other reason, you must provide written evidence to the bar/restaurant of a negative COVID-19 test.
NEGATIVE COVID-19 TEST includes:
Negative SARS-CoV-2 test, either PCR or Antigen testing. Any PCR or antigen test used must either have Emergency Use Authorization by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or be operating per the Laboratory Developed Test requirements by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
