Medical Information:
COVID-19 Exposure: The spread of the novel SARS-2 coronavirus, and the COVID-19 illness that results from that viral infection, has become widespread during 2020 within the United States and across the world. While Compass takes numerous safety and cleaning precautions and follows federal, state and local government guidelines, restrictions and policies with respect to limiting the spread of the virus, this virus has been shown to be highly infectious and can be spread between people who are not even aware they have been infected. Therefore, Compass cannot guarantee that participants will not become exposed to the virus while at one of our events, nor that they will not become ill during or after such events due to such exposure. While it appears that most people, including most children, experience mild, if any, symptoms from COVID-19, the virus can cause severe medical issues and even death in certain people, and medical professionals are generally not accurately able to predict how a COVID-19 infection would affect any specific individual. At the current time, the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (the “CDC”) has noted that some of the people who are most vulnerable to severe reactions to the virus include: older adults, people with chronic or underlying cardio-pulmonary conditions (i.e., heart or lung issues), people with blood disorders (such as diabetes or kidney and liver issues), and people with other immunity-compromising conditions (such as those undergoing radiation or chemotherapy, those who are HIV positive, etc.). If you or your family members fit into any of these categories, or if you have any other medical concerns related to COVID-19, we strongly urge you to contact your doctor and discuss your individual situation with your personal doctor or medical professional before attending any Compass Student event. If warranted, we would ask you to consider not attending such event until you and your doctor are comfortable the unavoidable risks related to attending Compass events.
