Hi Doug,
Based on the events of the past two years I think the only thing that you can predict for the symposium is that conditions in a pandemic are unpredictable. We have no hope of getting rid of variants until the whole world is vaccinated and boosted (probably multiple times at the current rate of vaccination). So who can say if a peak of upsilon or omega will coincide with the symposium? Depends also on the policies of the symposium organizers. CES proceeded with their live in-person show this month with vaccine mandates and testing. Probably won't know for another week if it resulted in a COVID bloom. But if it proves to have been successfully and safely conducted, it could be a model for future conference organizers.

What is the current Covid climate like there from the point of review of restrictions and as a local, do you think it will change by the end of summer? The kind of typical restrictions I see around the country would make the event not worth attending for me, certainly taking away from the pleasure of going to the Symposium, potentially increasing the cost of going there significantly. I am hoping that like England, Ireland, and Denmark have done, all the restrictions will go away soon here. Here in Boulder City, NV my personal life has been very little effected during the pandemic. I hope Spokane is the same.
