COVID-19 Safety Protocols at BCBS

May 30, 2023 Update
Considering the latest CDC and state of Massachusetts COVID-19 guidelines, as of May 1st, 2023, we no longer require COVID-19 vaccinations to attend programs at BCBS. As of June 1st, 2023, masks will be optional at BCBS.
We will continue the following protocols during residential programs at BCBS for the safety of all yogis.
- Proof of Negative Test: All participants are required to take a COVID-19 test on the day of their arrival at BCBS. Please take the test prior to arrival and bring a picture of the negative test to registration. Rapid, at-home tests are acceptable. If your COVID-19 test is positive, please reach out to 1-978-355-2347 ex 10 or contact@buddhistinquiry.org.
- Additional Precautions: We request that anyone exhibiting cold symptoms wears a mask in public spaces and tests each day that they are exhibiting symptoms.
All participants should have a plan for getting home quickly should they test positive or come down with an illness while at BCBS. Be sure to review our COVID-19 protocols leading up to your program. We expect all yogis to be considerate of one another’s health and safety and to report to a staff person if they begin to experience any cold-like symptoms. If you fall ill before the start of a program, please stay home. Your full deposit will be refunded.
