The organizers of the San Diego Comic-Con have announced that a mask mandate is going to be enforced and is required for "all attendee groups, including but not limited to exhibitors, guests, staff, press, professionals, volunteers, and cosplayers… to wear an approved face covering regardless of vaccination status." The mask mandate described by the organizers means “Face coverings should completely cover the nose and mouth, fit snugly against the sides of the face, and not have any gaps.” All attendees must also verify that they are fully vaccinated — two shots — or provide proof of a negative test taken within 72 hours. Anyone attending must download a “Health Pass” that will be used to quickly verify testing and/or vaccination status. All those who so verify will be given a wristband which will allow entry to the Convention Center. The San Diego Comic-Con is vehemently enforcing these rules indicating that “people who don’t comply with the face masking requirement will be removed." “This policy is in place to ensure the health and safety of all fans,” “Security will be on-site to support adherence to the policy.”
