As of March 6th, 2020, What you need to know about COVID-19 and Summer Camp

This special edition of the CampHacker Podcast is an interview with Dr. Amy Greer surrounding COVID-19 and what we know, as of March 6th, 2020 and summer camp.

Dr. Amy Greer is one of Canada's top infectious disease specialists and researchers, Dr. Amy Greer and a summer camp alumnus. You can follow her on twitter here - https://twitter.com/AmyGreerKalisz. 

There’s a lot of great information here, and it’s definitely worth the listen.

Some quick takeaways (many more in the recording): 

• Amy asked that we not share this video with our families - the information will become out of date quickly. It was recorded on Friday, March 6th
• You need to be consulting your local Health Department (I assume you're doing this already) for 2 things: what to be preparing now for your medical procedures this summer and making a call closer to this summer about whether/how camp will run
• you should prepare a new procedure this summer to get all families to confirm, no more than 48-hours before camp, that their camper is not symptomatic
• you should be ready with new cleaning/disinfecting procedures this summer. 

We hope you find this interview helpful. If you have any follow-up questions, please forward them to [email protected]
