Thanks Sharon. I’m still taking the temperature on events in CA and we’re having lots of internal discussions. We all need to have frequent check ins to see what develops.

Dear Guy and All, 

I am not writing in alarm but I wanted to note that we are starting to see a ripple of cancelled and postponed conferences/meetings/travel owing to fears that the spread of coronavirus will begin to tax and strain our healthcare system..  

Is there any discussion at LOC about possible restrictions on the horizon that will negatively impact our meeting?  Is this something we need to consider?

thanks for any insights here, 

Sharon

All—in case you need some sort of “official” invite for the May 6 Idea Exchange to justify your attendance, here it is.
