2025:COVID and feeling unwell/en
If you feel unwell before you travel or are concerned about a possible exposure to an illness, you should not travel to Nairobi. We’d encourage any in person attendees who are feeling unwell (after having travelled), to remain in their hotel rooms and join the conference virtually.
There will be COVID tests for all registered in person attendees and we encourage everyone to self-test if feeling unwell. Face masks and hand sanitizer will also be available.
If you are attending as a scholar, the limited medical insurance covers you for your approved arrival and departure dates, as per the Wikimedia Foundation Scholarship Travel Policy. Any additional personal travel will not be covered, so please ensure you have adequate additional coverage.
If you become ill and need assistance, please email illnesssupportwikimania
wikimedia.org during the event.
