An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, senior citizens and anyone with underlying medical conditions are especially vulnerable.
By attending an event hosted by the National Bell Festival, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19. You are also affirming that you are healthy and have not exhibited any symptoms of COVID-19 in the 14 days before the event. Symptoms include fever (100.4 degrees or higher), cough, shortness of breath, chills, nausea, diarrhea, loss of taste, sore throat, or muscle aches. If you feel sick, are exhibiting one or more of these symptoms, or have any signs of illness, please stay home.
Similarly, if you are at higher risk for severe illness, or are in any way uncomfortable venturing out where groups of people may be present, please stay home.
