The healthcare system's 'A Healthier Future' float will still be featured in the parade, but it is exercising caution for the health and safety of its front-line staff.
Kaiser Permanente has canceled plans to have front-line medical staffers participate in the Rose Parade, the healthcare organization said Thursday.The healthcare system cited Southern California’s recent surge in coronavirus cases, driven in part by the Omicron variant, in its decision.As a health care organization, Kaiser Permanente has an obligation to ensure the health and safety of our members, patients, employees, physicians, and the communities we serve.
Organizers are expecting hundreds of thousands of spectators along Pasadena’s Colorado Boulevard and say planning and precautions are in place for the Rose Parade’s return after last year’s event was canceled because of the pandemic. The Tournament of Roses is requiring the 6,000-plus parade participants, including people on floats, marching band members and equestrians, to provide proof of vaccination or a negative coronavirus test within 72 hours of the event.
Parade spectators ages 12 and up in ticketed areas, including grandstands, will also have to provide proof of vaccination or a negative test within 72 hours. Ticket holders ages 18 and up will have to provide photo identification, and all attendees ages 2 and up in those areas will be required to wear a mask.
But along the rest of the 5.5-mile route, where people can just walk up and watch, vaccination and negative test results will not be checked.
