[Athen] CSUN & Coronavirus

[Lucy GRECO]

i have to say reading that list of what has been cansaled fails my
accessibility review there is  no quick way to  review  with a screen
reader they forgot blind people need that information to. i reely did not
need to here all the dam numbers before every  event and they could have
made it a more navakable format just another reason i am starting to wonder
if this conference is   still viable
