[Organizers] Re: Seeking news on covid infections from dances with vaccination

In the SF Bay Area, we were cuing up to start at the end of July (with an automatic cancellation if case counts rose above the "moderate" tier - 2.8/100k ), and the case counts rose above that tier, so we didn't start, which was pretty disappoinintg. SInce they've only gotten higher since then, we're not planning a restart for any date certain. We've approved a special event for November but that will automatically be canceled if the case counts are too high. --Alan ________________________________________ From: Lisa Brown via Organizers &lt;organizers(a)lists.sharedweight.net&gt; Sent: Monday, August 16, 2021 1:53 PM To: Liz Burkhart Cc: organizers(a)lists.sharedweight.net Subject: [Organizers] Re: Seeking news on covid infections from dances with vaccination We started doing ECD in July and got three dances in (we dance weekly) before closing down again due to the high transmission rate in our community. We began with proof of vaccination required and by the end we also required masks. We won't be dancing again until the transmission rate in our county drops lower. :Lisa Country Dancers of Rochester On Mon, Aug 16, 2021 at 4:44 PM Liz Burkhart via Organizers <organizers@lists.sharedweight.net<mailto:organizers@lists.sharedweight.net>> wrote: Hi all, with some dances resuming for the summer, I'd like to hear how that's been for dance communities. Have groups started and then stopped? Is there any news of infections from dance camps or weekends? I know Pinewoods heightened their requirements (from just vaccination to also multiple negative tests + masking for the first few days of American Week), and then cancelled the rest of their camps.
