SHEA is planning a fully in person conference but is closely monitoring Sars CoV-2 and its variants. Should anything change, we will update all current registrants and the website. Session Recordings are available for purchase! Register to get access.
The in-person conference is not merely about exchange of information and ideas – it’s about relationships, renewing contact with friends and colleagues. It provides an unmatched opportunity to interact professionally, socially and educationally with the largest gathering of the healthcare epidemiology community. We will take all necessary measures to provide a safe, productive, and enriching experience.

SHEA requires all persons who attend the SHEA Spring Conference to be up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations based on the CDC definition during the conference dates of April 11 – 14, 2023. When registering for SHEA Spring 2023, attendees will self-attest that they will be up to date with my COVID-19 vaccines at the time of the conference. Those that do not self-attest will not be able to pick up their badges and attend sessions/events. Up to date means that you have completed a COVID-19 vaccine primary series and received the most recent booster dose recommended for you.*
Exceptions are under consideration on a case by case basis for approval for attendees with a medical condition or closely held religious belief that prevents “up to date” vaccination. These attendees must provide proof in advance of the conference as well as a negative COVID-19 PCR test taken within 72 hours prior to the conference start time, as well as a negative test each day of the conference. Attendees with an exemption will be responsible for purchasing and administering SHEA approved COVID-19 tests before arrival. More information will be shared once approval is provided.
*The Vaccination as a Condition of Attendance is subject to change.
SHEA will ensure that a safety code of conduct will be in place and will follow CDC guidelines for all in-person events. SHEA currently has a COVID Policy and Procedures Document that outlines all precautions we will be taking onsite at the conference.
SHEA does not offer an exhibit hall as our main focus is on education. However, we do have several sponsor opportunities! Learn more.
