The main ideas we were trying to convey are:
(1) The LA exec aren't health experts. We don't be taking our own
advice (or yours - sorry).
(2) We will instead be asking every subcommittee to follow the
spirit of the authorities recommendations, or at least as near
as we can divine them at the time.
(3) Beyond that, individual event organisers are of course free to
take stronger precautions if they feel that's wise. Open source
isn't a dictatorship.
(4) LA decisions are more directed at doing what's best for the whole
community rather than protecting individuals. With that in mind
you should be evaluating your own risks. Don't rely on LA's
policies to protect you. In particular if you are over 65, have
a depressed immune system or have a history of lung issues I would
strong suggest not attending ANY gathering until this has passed.
