Wow so glad I didn’t cave and go to the Canary Islands for an astro-conference-vacay - sounds like pretty much everyone tested + for covid.
Conferences are supposed to spread knowledge - not brain-damage. I personally am not going to any kind of in-person conference ever again. The preservation of my brain function is my number one priority and no conference or large gathering is worth jeopardizing that.
@carlysagan And think of the carbon emissions you will avoid by all that not-flying. Thank you!

@lobsterofrevenge @carlysagan Yep. These are the two main reasons I don't fly anymore. A distant third is the prospect spending the whole flight sitting next to a belligerent idiot enraged by my mask. This has happened to someone I know.
