The forecasting platform Metaculus is predicting whether EAG will be cancelled due to COVID-19-related concerns. Median forecasts are hovering at 60%.
From an email sent to all EA Global attendees this weekend:
The EA Global team has appointed a board of advisors to help us decide whether to cancel or reschedule EA Global, given the outbreak of COVID-19. However, we may still hold the conference at the intended time.
Our advisors will consider recent data on the spread of the virus in the Bay Area and in areas many attendees are traveling from, among other factors. We plan to provide more information next week about the board members and the process they will use to make a decision.
