ngl, this has been an exciting game of chicken. Event coordinators would have to wait for an external authority to make the call or the event insurance doesn't cover the cancellation.
These measures are the bare minimum we should be doing to try to shift the peak β to slow the rise in cases so that healthcare systems are less overwhelmed. Each day that we can delay an extra case is a big win for the HC system. 27/n

As I suspected, South By Southwest insurance policy does NOT cover cancellations due to disease outbreaks (not many events do). Very tough times ahead for the promoters and those hoping for refunds. π₯π
