Health & Safety Measures

Thank you to everyone who is planning to join us on-site in San Francisco, United States, for the LASA2025 Hybrid Congress. Health and safety are our priority and we appreciate your cooperation with the LASA2025 health and safety protocols.

We are working closely with the San Francisco Marriott Marquis, LASA2025’s main venue, to ensure that the LASA International Congress complies with all requirements of the local authorities.

All attendees, participants, and exhibitors on-site should:

Wash hands often with soap for at least 20 seconds and/or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer;
Avoid touching their eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands; and
Engage in additional responsible health and safety practices, on and off the LASA2025 Congress location.

Individuals who fall within any of the categories below should not engage in the LASA2025 Congress on-site:

Individuals who test positive for COVID-19 (regardless of vaccination status) within the 10 days before the Congress starting date, May 23, 2025.
