This notice does not supersede the already outlined policy for reopening. This is in addition to the current policy.
- Reporting a positive case of close contact
- Anyone who attends an SCA event when potentially infectious for COVID-19, or who has been identified as a primary or secondary close contact, must immediately contact the Kingdom Seneschal’s Office – Seneschal@antir.org
- As soon as any information is received by the Kingdom Seneschal that suggests that COVID-19 may have been transmitted during an SCA event, the group seneschal and, if relevant, the event steward, must be advised to prepare a contact list.
- In the event of a positive test result, and in addition to the local area’s contact tracing information, the Kingdom Seneschal (or designated deputy) must:
- Advise any participants that they may have been in close contact with a known (or potentially) positive case, and directed to immediately self- isolate and await confirmation regarding the relevant contact.
- Provide, upon request, any contact tracing information that has been lawfully requested by the local territory as part of the contact tracing activities.
- In the event of a positive test result all IN-PERSON activities for the branch will be suspended for a minimum of 10 days.
Please note, the Kingdom can issue sanctions towards anyone not following the Kingdom’s set policy. Under no circumstance should a participant’s name be publicly released. Please be part of the community effort.
