@jameyedwards @HIMSS @nickisnpdx @andrewintech @Colin_Hung @healthythinker @healthblawg @evankirstel @IrmaRaste @boltyboy @jessdamassa @JohnNosta I too heartily applaud @HIMSS for the very difficult and costly decision to cancel #HIMSS20. It's my hope that other events around the world will join in clamping down to minimize the spread of this disease. When it's over we can look back. /cont'd
@jameyedwards @HIMSS @nickisnpdx @andrewintech @Colin_Hung @healthythinker @healthblawg @evankirstel @IrmaRaste @boltyboy @jessdamassa @JohnNosta I have to say, cancelling conferences is a *bitch* for the speaker business. This year's gigs for me include Croatia (cancelled today), South Korea (oops), Milan (oops). /2
@jameyedwards @HIMSS @nickisnpdx @andrewintech @Colin_Hung @healthythinker @healthblawg @evankirstel @IrmaRaste @boltyboy @jessdamassa @JohnNosta But let me also say, it illustrates why science and strong #PublicHealth are so important. Without them we die defenseless, like the plague. Anyone who says they don't trust science has no right to take any medicine.

In any case, again, praise to @HIMSS leadership. 🙏🙌

As a 20+ year member of @HIMSS and current @MDHIMSS Board member (speaking personally), I implore HIMSS to make the bold and powerful decision to cancel next week’s #HIMSS20.

Here are some thoughts and additional asks: /1
This is an important opportunity for @HIMSS to show leadership by canceling the official conference so that current registrations can be rolled over to #HIMSS21. /2
@HIMSS should instead use the #HIMSS20 time to invite a more limited number of experts and developers who can contribute to rapid development of collaborative IT supports for the emerging epidemic. /3
