Virtual WisCon, and risk mitigation

[brainwane]

I've decided I'm attending WisCon virtually instead of in person this year. If you're going in person, please read that entry for information on how you can mitigate your COVID risk, including where in Madison you can get Paxlovid in case you test positive during the convention.

I am sorry I won't see you but glad you're making the decision that is right for yourself.

(I can drive down, which changes the risk calculation. I stayed healthy at DisCon in part by sticking to outdoor dining / hotel room dining, and that's my plan for WisCon as well -- fingers crossed for nice weather.)

My decision is to try to virtually attend both Balticon and WisCon in some fashion this weekend.

Wise choice, and thanks for sharing your calculus.

(Most of Dane Co. lacks sewage treatment, which is why it's missing from the referenced map. Madison MSD (metro sewerage district) reports slight increase.)

I'll see you there, virtually!

I'm also attending virtually! Would love to go back to in person conventions someday but not for a while yet for me so I've been appreciating the conventions that keep digital options
