Next PPPC meeting??? (Northern California)

[markh]

Should PPPC start meeting???

California seems on the verge of re-opening.

The S.F. Pen show will be happening at the end of August.

So… Is it time for the PPPC to have its next meeting??

We need input from all members -

- When should we meet?

- How should we arrange the meeting? (All the normal COVID  issues.)

Your input is needed - please post here. We need to hear from everyone.

Wish I could be there- but can't wait to see yall in August!

Todd,

 

I agree totally that we should resume face to face meetings.

 

Where: anywhere is fine with me. If you would like me to arrange something down here just say the word.

 

When: Probably before the SF Show. Mid-July?

 

How: I am not sure any precautions need be mandatory. Those of us who are vaccinated are in next no danger either to contract or transmit. Anyone who is vulnerable or concerned can wear masks, and the unvaccinated can go eff themselves, (which they are already doing).

 

Regards,

Rick

Indoors or outdoors, doesn’t matter, although indoors is probably more convenient. Masks optional for the vaccinated, required for the unvaccinated, but on the honor system. At this point in time an unvaccinated person choosing to go unmasked is only putting themselves at risk, hence not the concern of the rest of us.

Rick, sadly, we vaccinated folk just are not in "next to no danger". The most recent information is that the mRNA vaccines are "only" 88% effective against the increasingly predominant delta variant. Not saying that 88% isn't very good, but... since I've got a hip replacement coming up, I view 88% as too high a risk for very close contact areas indoors. Call me overly cautious, but...
