MAHS Meets Bi-Monthly - You're invited!
MAHS RESUMES DIVING ACTIVITIES.
Great News! The MAHS Board has voted to start diving again. This decision is based in large part on the recent announcements by the Director General
of WHO and the U.S. CDC. Both have declared that as of mid-May 2023 the COVID-19 public health emergency will no longer be in effect. These
announcements reflect the improvement in public health conditions and that the risk of contagion while diving is significantly reduced.
Most of the diving public is vaccinated now and those who do become infected often do not experience life threatening symptoms as before. However,
there are some divers who remain in the high-risk category. Divers who are 50 years of age and older and/or are immunocompromised
have a higher risk of experiencing severe symptoms from COVID-19 infection and must carefully consider this risk when deciding to participate
in diving and non-diving activities.
The MAHS Field School for June 2023 is postponed for now. However, MAHS is proceeding with plans and making the arrangements to conduct a
field school later this year.
Please check our website and keep an eye on MAHSmail for more information as we begin to pull together our first field school in three years!
