PNAA UPDATE ON COVID, MARCH 15, 2020NewSince PNAA posted its position statement on COVID-19 last week, here’s the new national developments:
Emerging Coronavirus (COVID - 19) DiseaseNewCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) initially reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) on December 31, 2019, is a novel coronavirus identified in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. On January 30, 2020, WHO declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global health emergency.
National Convention Press ReleaseNewPNAA is doing its due diligence in monitoring updates on COVID-19 issued by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. We take this pandemic situation seriously, and we conducted an emergency meeting to assess how this situation will affect our organization’s upcoming 41st National Convention that will be held on July 1-5 in San Diego, California.
PNAA AdvisoryNewThe decision to cancel the NCR Conference was not made lightly. After much discussion and consideration, the PNAA Executive Board have decided to cancel the NCR Conference as healthcare organizations are actively managing the response to COVID-19 in their communities.
NCR CancellationNewPNAA is cognizant of the travel advisories that have been issued by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to address the newly discovered coronavirus. As an organization, we recognize the pandemic impact to public health and the directives from academic and healthcare organizations in taking precautions to protect its workforce by suspending international business travels along with domestic travels to conferences or large gatherings.
