Dear friends and colleagues,
It is with great regret we announce that as a result of the continuation and escalation of the COVID-19 pandemic both within the UK and worldwide, the decision has been made to postpone the 2020 EVDI Congress due to be held in Edinburgh on the 15th to 19th September until September of 2022.
This action is not being undertaken lightly. We have been closely monitoring the developing situation and with stringent restrictions now in place in many countries, there can be few if any of our members whose lives and work are not being altered by the crisis in some way. With the degree of uncertainty over the likely timescale of required actions to combat the disease it is very difficult to know what our world will look like over the coming months. Our priority as an organisation is to protect the health and wellbeing of our communities both locally and around the world, and to show the very greatest respect for those most affected.
By postponement of the conference until 2022, following IVRA Dublin in 2021, the extraordinary efforts made so far by the Local Organising and Scientific Committees will come to fruition in a fantastic event held in a safer and happier time. We are most grateful for your understanding in this matter, and we very much hope to see many of you there.
Sincerely, with warm regards and very best wishes
Dr. Tobias Schwarz
Chair of the Local Organizing Committee
Ms. Alison Major
EVDI Conference Director
