Karmê Chöling's wellness policy: masks, testing and what we ask if you fall ill while you are here.
Karmê Chöling follows the CDC's guidance for COVID-19 and other airborne illness. Questions to guestservices@karmecholing.org.
Everyone
If you have any cold or flu symptoms while you are here, please wear a mask, even if a COVID test is negative.
Day visitors
- Masks and testing are not required, and are encouraged.
- If you have symptoms before a visit, please come another day.
- If symptoms begin during a visit, we will ask you to wear a mask while you are here.
Staying on the land
- Masks are optional for participants, staff and teachers. Please bring your own; we have a few.
- Vaccination is not required, and is strongly encouraged.
- Please test before you travel, take care on the way, and bring tests with you. If anyone tests positive after arriving, everyone in the house is asked to test.
If you fall ill
- We will ask you to take a rapid antigen test.
- With a fever or a serious illness, we will ask you to stay apart from others for at least 24 hours, longer if the fever or symptoms continue.
- If a fever or severe symptoms last more than 72 hours, we will ask you to seek medical care and go home.
