In-Person COVID Protocol:
1. If you have any symptoms such as nasal congestion, scratchy throat, headache or other cold symptoms, kindly refrain from entering the Monastery.
2. All visitors must be masked with an approved surgical, KF-94, KN-95 or N-95 mask (best protection), covering the mouth and nose at all times, regardless of test results. This is best practice to protect yourself and others. The Sakya Monastery provides these at the main entrance.
3. Full vaccination is not required, however it is highly recommended.

Please be aware that prior infection with Covid 19 does not decrease your risk of becoming reinfected due to the current variants. Do what you can to protect yourself and others. With the current Covid variants, all visitors should be treated as potentially infectious.

Thank you!
