For those attendees unable to join us in Calgary, we are running most sessions in an interactive hybrid format (Zoom) allowing virtual attendees the opportunity to ask questions and fully participate in sessions in real-time.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>What are the Health & Safety Protocols for in-person in Calgary?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>

The CDTRP ASM requires masking and regular rapid tests for attendees, and we will be monitoring air quality in the venue. You can consult the full\u00a0Health & Code of Conduct Policies\u00a0<\/a>here<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0The most recent research shows that in solid organ transplant recipients, around 1 in 16 who are infected with COVID-19 results in a severe case requiring supplemental oxygen (Solera et al, 2024). Among the general population, 1 in 9 Canadians have experienced long term COVID symptoms, and most of these individuals continue to experience them (Statistics Canada, 2023).\u00a0It is aligned with CDTRP values to protect the health and well-being of our attendees and provide an accessible meeting for those at high risk.
