Until further notice, audience members who attend indoor SF State events will be required to provide either:

  1. Original, copy, or digital COVID-19 vaccine record issued by state, local, foreign governmental jurisdictions, or an approved private company showing full vaccination

    or

  2. A negative test result within 48 hours of the event; the COVID-19 test must be taken within one day (for antigen test) or two days (for PCR tests).

Please note that self-administered antigen tests are not acceptable unless there is third-party verification. A written self-attestation or declaration of vaccination status is also not acceptable as a form of proof.

Individuals are considered Fully Vaccinated after meeting the requirements of either A or B below:

A. mRNA Vaccine (e.g., Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna)
