Disclaimer
We want to hold the school in safe conditions regarding COVID-19. For this, we strictly follow the related Lithuanian national and local rules that will be valid at the time of the school.
As you will certainly understand, CERN cannot predict the spread of the virus or the evolution of event or travel restrictions, airline polices or flight/public transport cancellations. Your participation in the school is at your own risk and, in particular, CERN and Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) are not responsible for any costs associated with early departure from or termination of the school, travel, quarantine, medical treatment or any other consequences resulting from being infected or a close contact during or in connection with participation in the school. Please ensure you have the necessary travel and medical insurance in place to cover your attendance.
This page will contain a detailed COVID-19 prevention plan for the school, based on KTU instructions and Lithuanian rules, and taking into account specific requirements of the school.
It’s important to note that the national or local rules might become stricter as the situation evolves; in which case the following school sanitary measures will be adapted accordingly.
Details will be decided and announced in due time. The following list outlines the measures and rules that are likely to be put in place:
- As of May 1, Lithuania removed all COVID-19-related requirements for all travelers. It means that travelers arriving in Lithuania from any country in the world will no longer need to take the COVID-19 test before the trip, even if they are not vaccinated or recovered from COVID-19. Filling a questionnaire of the National Public Health Centre is also no longer required.
