Additionally, Setsucon has been monitoring the COVID-19 situation in both Blair County and Pennsylvania as a whole.

Those not eligible for the vaccine, such as those 12 years of age or under, will not be required to present proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test. Those 2 years of age or under will not be required to wear a mask, per CDC recommendations. These requirements are subject to change to match CDC recommendations.
