ACSA President Rashida Ng announced Saturday that the 108th ACSA Annual Meeting will not place in San Diego this week. In the statement, she says:
The Board of Directors reviewed public health data about the coronavirus and its impact on travel and our conference venues, and determined it would be an unacceptable risk to hold the conference and related activities at this time. We regret having to make this decision, but determined we must prioritize the health and safety of our conference attendees.
The organization is currently exploring a virtual means to recognize and facilitate "the important and timely scholarly work" that would be shared throughout the conference.
This news comes in light of many other postponements and cancellations of events in architecture due to the coronavirus. With the ever evolving developments of the virus, Johns Hopkins has created an interactive dashboard that maps all of the global cases of the coronavirus. It may serve as a visual resourceful tool in surveying the impact of this disease.
