1 of 2: With Covid as your only consideration, would you attend an in-person prostate cancer 2-day conference in New York City in 2022?

I would rather wait until January 2023 before I attend in-person events that are open to the public.

Yes, but only if masks, proof of vaccination, and pre-testing were required to attend

I would not attend an in-person prostate cancer conference. It's much easier and much faster to gain information online.

davenj, you would be missing the interaction with other PC members. The one I attended in L.A was a very awesome eye opening experience . I met some players and speakers that I had only spoken to online . I cherish that experience.

NO, that is not even in the answer to the question. LIfe is too short to waste it doing things I don't want to do. Hell, I don't even want to go to my appointments.

I have no desire to go to New York City. Don't like big cities, have toured NY City in 1964 during the Worlds Fair, which was amazing !

Why aren't there other options to answer?

I have found watching them educational, and I would like to view them live to potentially ask questions, but I don't see myself attending in person.

Too much expense and effort for out of towners like myself. Also I view my condition is a tragedy I am burdened with, not something I travel to acknowledge or celibrate.

I currently travel and plan to travel at my own considerable expense for treatment and care.

That's just my own feelings and I appreciate all your efforts at what your doing for us patients.

I would think with such a large population base in the NYC area you should be able and I hope you do draw locals and visitors to the conference.

Thank you for what you do!
