• NESR REQUIRES that you notify Ellis and Laurie immediately if you develop cold-like symptoms or test positive during your stay.

• NESR STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that all Students and Instructors avoid large crowds and events in the two weeks before arrival.

• NESR STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that all Students and Instructors wear a well-fitting N95 mask during any public travel to NESR.
