Roslyn Synagogue Updated COVID-19 Guidelines
If you are fully vaccinated (2 weeks after your second Pfizer or Moderna shot or 2 weeks after your J&J shot) you are not required to wear a mask in shul. Of course, you may still choose to wear a mask even if you are vaccinated if you feel it is necessary for any reason.
We will be using the honor system to allow vaccinated individuals not to wear masks.
If you are not honest about your vaccine status you are putting yourself and others at risk of COVID.
We will be relying on your cooperation and honesty regarding your vaccination status.
If you are not vaccinated, or have not completed the 2 week period as noted above, you MUST continue to wear a mask. We will keep the seating arrangement with “family/group” seating and some spacing between “groups” and other “groups” or individuals. This will likely change as we move forward so that seating becomes more available.
