I would hold off. People are starting to back out because Florida is doing Florida things and people are concerned.

Sounds like more of a reason to go!

I mean hold off because there is a chance it could be canceled or at least be turned into a virtual conference like last year. There are already Sangoma staff members that have backed out going and the interest for this year is already lower than normal, including last year (that was virtual).
 
I am going already to be in the region next month, and a drive down to Orlando would not be much of a detour.

Listen, our wonderful supreme leader, DeathSantis will not allow anything to be cancelled. Hell, he told schools that if they mandated masks, that he would pull their funding. Such a tool, I made my daughter entering high school get her vaccine shot the next day.
 
Vaccines are supposed to prevent people from getting sick. What they are giving out is an mRNA gene therapy.

That would depend on what the vaccine is fighting. There is a reason you get yearly flu shots and even then those are like 50/50 on prevention. Also, the J&J vaccine is not mRNA and only 66% effective. There are also all the variants that the vaccines were not made for. This article lacks information like which vaccine was taken and which strain was the cause of the infection. The vaccines where never advertised as a 100% effective, just the best course of action. Just like in every other pandemic in our history.

I have gotten a mRNA vaccine and sadly I haven't gotten any cool mutant powers yet.
 
It's been cancelled. LOL

Due to the rise of Covid cases recently throughout parts of the US, including Florida, we decided it was in the best interests of the community, our partners, and our employees to cancel it again

Meanwhile:


 
Wow needs to go virtual.
It is. All the official announcements said it was moving to a virtual environment with the dates being pushed back to the more traditional October timeframe. Official dates will be announced soon, per the official announcements. Twitter, community forums, email notifications, etc. are all being used to push this information out.

I got at least four notices over different platforms yesterday.
 
Are not other Vaccinations like DTaP MMR Polio and ChickenPox for school kids mandated in Florida unless you get a 'note' from your Doctor or Pastor ?

Some would disagree about the "gene Therapy' claim.




Being able to understand science should not depend on the hat you wear ;-) . . . .

The only out that there really is right now is that the vaccine is not FDA approved yet. It's emergency authorization only, so even though everyone in my house that is able to get the vaccine have ... I'm OK with not getting it if you have that concern. And if that is you ... WEAR your F'ing mask.

And I was looking forward to have an excuse to road trip up there. Guess I'll go in October.
 
Other things not FDA approved (for good reason)

Partially Hydrogenated Oil

By that thinking then pretty well no fast foods for any one going to Florida (or not :)) and no school meals for Florida schoolkids :-(

I am also vaccinated and while I support individual choice not to be vaccinated, I don't want to be forced into mask wearing to protect others who aren't vaccinated. Those who choose not to be vaccinated assume the risk of infection as part of their choice.
