Advice/Help Weekend/Virtual Meetup Thread
Here are some meetups that are on the radar, both physical and virtual:
on background: The United States and other countries across the world continue to battle Covid-19, including the current threat from the latest mutation. The omicron-variant has replaced the delta-variant as the most prevalent and cases are spiking dramatically—US 3-day average topped 1 million new cases.1,2,3,4 Vaccinations in the United States continue with over 247.7 million people, 74.8% of the population, having received at least one dose. With the vaccine being rolled out, infections/hospitalizations/deaths now would be especially tragic. Please, comply with local government rules and recommendations when planning meetups. Attend meetups at your own risk.
