IBS Winter Meeting

Yeah This is going to be another first for you and I
We can only hope Covid is gone after January but with all the uncertainty in what will be in PA who knows. If it’s stay the way it is no hotels are wanting in house events. I’m sure the Virtual meeting will be first class Jeff has experience in these the meetings so I’m sure he will make sure it’s right.

If you honestly think that the Virus will be gone at 12:05 PM on January 20th, I may have a bridge or two for sale for you.

Viruses are a life form, they’re never going away, and can’t be “locked down”...

RWJ I'm not going to turn this into a argument over Covid because I think the IBS is right going this route.
I don't know if you know anybody that has gotten this virus but I do. My 97 year old mother for one, way back in April, ended up in the hospital and almost did not survive. Since March the only way to see her is virtually and she doesn't know why nobody comes to visit her. Home is still on lock down because they keep getting more cases.
I have also lost two cousins to it and one very close friend and wasn't allowed to go to funerals to pay last respects.
I could go on but I'll stop here so as not to disrupt the thread too much.

Regrets to all that have been negatively impacted by the Covid-19 virus and I do believe in being judicious regarding our individual actions. The intent of my original comment was simply to state that we have to learn how to coexist with all viruses as they can’t be eradicated. Polio, mumps, measles, corona, ebola, influenza, hepatitis, West Nile to name a few... and likely more to come!
I know you was Jim . I wish it was all true and it was gone with the new year . The sad thing is it’s real and people are dying and it’s generating lots of money for some and that is usually a bad sign .Hope you stay healthy.
