COVID-19 Policy: Our top priority is the health and safety of our guests. We ask that you read all communications from the University regarding current policies and protocols, including Harvard University policies.
  • Keep current with COVID-19 vaccination. Harvard highly recommends being up to date per the CDC definition for all Harvard community members, including faculty, staff, researchers, visitors, and vendors who will have any on-campus presence.
  • Keep a face mask handy. Face masks are now optional in most spaces. We strongly encourage carrying one at all times and recommend voluntary masking in crowded settings, especially indoors. In limited circumstances, some event venues may require face coverings.
  • Stay home if you feel sick. Test if you have symptoms and don't assume it's merely a cold or allergies. Test if you have COVID-19 exposure, even if you do not have symptoms.
  • If you test positive, isolate, and follow CDC guidelines. Abide by the isolation guidelines listed on CDC.gov. Notify close contacts and check in with your health care provider if you are high risk.
 
Masking is optional inside Gund Hall. 
 
Please visit the registration table if you would like a KN95 mask or a rapid test.
 
 
EEE:Some Comeback events will be held in outdoor tents, including Beer 'N Dogs and the Alumni & Friends Dinner Reception. Due to the ongoing risk of mosquito-borne illnesses in Massachusetts, we recommend taking protective measures, such as wearing long sleeves and pants and applying mosquito repellent. For your convenience, mosquito repellent will be available throughout the tent areas. For more detailed guidance and additional resources, please visit the Harvard Environmental Health & Safety website.
