What are the COVID-19 Policies?

For that reason, IACC expects attendees to take responsibility themselves for following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and other public health agencies on measures to reduce
infection from and spread of COVID-19.

In addition to all other policies relating to your attendance at an IACC event, you agree to comply with all COVID19-related safety procedures that may be implemented by IACC or Hilton San Diego Bayfront (“Hotel”), or that may be required by law or recommended by public health agency, in order to protect as much as possible the health and safety of all event attendees.
