I've received some questions about future Genii conventions.
Until there is a vaccine I do not see a way to put on a convention that is safe for attendees. There is no possible way to do an in-person magic convention with social distancing. Hotel ballrooms are not noted for their wonderful ventilation. If you have one asymptomatic attendee spreading the virus--just one--that person could infect hundreds of attendees. I, personally, will not be attending any magic convention until there is a vaccine. |

A viable vaccine could take years. As long as people take basic precautions I don't believe attending a convention would be any more dangerous than shopping at the grocery store.

I'm hoping that an effective vaccine will be available sooner, rather than later. Also, when one does become available, I hope enough people get the vaccine!
Dave PS-Richard, I would be very disappointed if the next Genii Convention was cancelled but I think it's better to be safe rather than sorry.
Just adding my 3 cents worth because anybody can add their 2 cents worth...

I’m reading headlines right now and it seems that a possible vaccine is getting closer.

Whether there will be a vaccine or not, does anyone have any updates of what's going to happen with conventions like Blackpool or The Session in the UK?
Thanks! |

I guess it might be a bit early to answer that! 😅
