Jennifer:
Thanks for the email. There has not been new guidance released from the CDC. At present, it seems that the recommendations this year will be in the form of “best practices”. For example, the CDC recommends best practice in handwashing at camp. This may mean different things for different camps. Another best practice is that individuals arrive to camp in a healthy state. How do we do this? Screening, testing, vaccination? Each camp will have more flexibility to make decisions about what is best practice for their camp.
We know this may make it more challenging for camps but at the same time allows more autonomy that camps had in 2020 & 2021. All of the activities that you share are good ideas. In response to your question about isolation/quarantine for vacc vs unvacc, there is guidance.

In response to your question about testing, CDC also provides some educational information

I hope this information is helpful. The next CDC/ACH/ACA Townhall is May 11th – sign up to hear the latest information.
