COVID-19: UPDATE for all involved in Bone Curriculum Symposium

We are monitoring the situation on a daily basis and following-up on the recommendations of the WHO and local authorities.

With the Bone Curriculum symposium to take place at the end of next week, the organisation team continues to plan confidently for the Symposium. We currently have NO plans to postpone or cancel.

Whereas it is true that delegates from mainland China and Iran are banned from traveling at this stage, there is no such restriction for people traveling from elsewhere. We are very grateful for the ongoing support of our exhibitors and participants who continue to register and plan for the Symposium and we’ve not experienced any substantial impacts so far.

Mindful of our duty of care, we are also carefully considering and consulting with experts on what the appropriate sanitary, health and other measures should be. We assure you that all appropriate measures will be in place at the Bone Curriculum Symposium. We will also introduce the Bone Curriculum Symposium as a handshake/kiss & hug-free meeting.

COVID-19 Preparedness and Frequently Asked Questions are available here.

We look forward to welcoming you to Ghent and wish you, your business colleagues, your communities and your families good wishes and resilience in the months to come.

Dr. Hans-Georg Zmierczak MD PhD

Chair and Scientific Organiser of the Symposium
