My Brothers,

Although all necessary precautions were observed this past Saturday, it has been brought to the attention of Grand Lodge that an attendee at the one day class, who felt well at the time, has been tested positive with COVID-19. The attendee had a second test performed today and the results were negative. Due to HIPAA laws, we cannot (and will not) divulge his name, district nor lodge of the brother, but under CDC guidelines, every attendee must be advised.

Since this event was within the incubation period prior to his exhibiting of any symptoms, we are hereby advising and directing each member in attendance that he should take all necessary precautions in light of this information. For further guidance as to steps you should take, we refer you to the State of New Jersey and Center for Disease Control websites below.
