I agree the denominator of people that are infected with COViD-19 may be underestimated and/or under-reported. Here is a set of key facts as to why: 1) CDC declined to utilize tests that were already available from the WHO; choosing instead to develop its own test.Presently, the CDC is not reporting the actual number of people who have been tested and the Surgeon General, who I am watching on TV literally right now, refused to give an exact number, but it is estimated to be only 1,000-1,500. South Korea has tested over 150,000 citizens to date. As for quality of the care in USA being the better relative to other countries, I'm also watching Dr. Irwin Redelener on TV right now state unequivocally that we don't have enough hospital beds or ventilators to care for the predicted number of patients requiring such care.

I received an email yesterday regarding the cancellation.
There seems to be good availability of rooms as the Renaissance. I booked a new room and cancelled my old reservation. Dear AXPONA Community, AXPONA has been rescheduled from April 17-19 to August 7-9, 2020 out of concern for the health and safety of all participants due to the growing coronavirus situation. This decision was made following an outpouring of feedback from the AXPONA community over the last 72 hours. The three most consistent themes we heard were, 1) fears of attending public events will increase in March and April, 2) AXPONA should still be held in 2020, and 3) reschedule later this year if possible. Although the Renaissance Schaumburg Hotel is booked solid all year, they offered us a week in August that will accommodate all of AXPONA's space needs. So we secured it. We rescheduled out of an abundance of caution during this unpredictable time to provide the best opportunity for a well-attended event and to ensure the best AXPONA experience for all show goers in 2020. We will contact all exhibitors and attendees directly later this week as we work through the details of the move. Our sole priority today is to communicate this news immediately so everyone can adjust their plans accordingly. We thank you for your understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience. We look forward to seeing you all at AXPONA in August! Sincerely, Joel A. Davis Founder & CEO, JD Events joel@jdevents.com August 7-9, 2020 axpona.com |

Edit: Yeah, as I expected, I just spoke with a lady at the hotel and she states that the hotel is sold out for the AXPONA dates in August.
