I saw a notice for an interesting looking symposium on Long Covid.

...that I won't be boosting.

1. Buried deep in the site, I found the Covid policy, which states: "We no longer require evidence of COVID-19 vaccinations for attendance at our meetings, but we strongly recommend that our participants be fully vaccinated. Masks are not required but recommended in all indoor public/shared. spaces within the conference venue."

2. No remote attendance options.

For a con about COVID.

Ridiculous.

@ShaulaEvans@zirk.us @rogerparkinson@mastodon.nz Covid is the only pathogen that gets a free pass like this. Would a symposium on malaria have indoor swamps with mosquitos freshly imported from somewhere where malaria is still a big problem? Unlikely - but hey it’s Covid, the golden child.
