Nationals and Coronavirus.

Austin just canceled SXSW. Is it safe to think Nationals will go on as planned. Is it safe to do so. I really want to go to Nationals, but I am 71 and concerned.

  • This may be foreshadowing... USA Swimming canceled ALL USA Swimming hosted events. Also, USA Swimming just released this statement: "we also strongly recommend that our LSCs and clubs suspend all USA Swimming-sanctioned events across the country for the next 30 days." I recognize that this is not our governing body and the meet is outside of the 30 day window. Here's the link for the USA Swimming statement: www.usaswimming.org/.../coronavirus-(covid-19)-update I just sent it to my fellow Georgia Masters board members as a heads-up for our March 28-29 meet. I'm guessing USMS will follow USA Swimming's lead on this. Rob Copeland, what do you think about this? Nationals is outside of the window, but what about meets WITHIN the window? Edit: Our meet was cancelled on 3/13.
