IMO, I think disbanding the pandemic response team in 2018 was not a wise decision. If they were still operating when this started late last year, they could/would have started the production of test kits based on our earliest knowledge of the RNA test needed to identify it. Then we would have had real information on the extent of the outbreak here. Instead, we went for weeks under the mistaken impression that it was not here. It was, we just had our heads in the sand.

If we dropped the ball so did many nations.
 
No need to reply.

I agree with Carl.
Most of you understand math...this virus is spreading exponentially...let that sink in. Our current administration dropped the ball on this one.  Now we are suffering the consequences.
You can't cure ....wait for it....wait for it..... ineptness.

Canceling or rescheduling a conference is by no means "Breaking down the infrastructure of society".

Breaking down the infrastructure of society over fear mongering is not being a very responsible member of society at all. This didnt happen during swine flu, and we made it though it

IMHO, it isn't about you, it is about being a responsible member of society.  I'm not judging, or saying we are at that point, but there is a point at which the responsible thing to do is cancel large gatherings to flatten the curve.

I’m sorry folks but this conference really should be canceled for the safety of everyone.
 
Thank you to Sonar For their brave decision yesterday to pull out.
 
I know this would be a hardship for WISPA’s finances so I think we should all pull together to make sure WISPA doesn’t suffer financially.  We need WISPA and our members to be healthy and strong both physically and financially.
 
 
Best regards,
