WSAVA recently announced that the conference will be fully online due to ongoing COVID-19 concerns.
Last month, The World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA), announced that the 2021 World Congress, planned in partnership with the Federation of Companion Animal Veterinary Associations (FECAVA) was going hybrid, allowing attendees the unique opportunity to participate in person in Warsaw Poland, and virtually. But now, due to recent and ongoing COVID-19-related concerns, WSAVA says the conference will be strictly virtual.
“We were hoping to offer you an amazing hybrid experience but because of the continuing challenges of COVID-19, our venue is unfortunately not available to us,” it says on the WSAVA website.
The virtual Congress, which will be held March 21 to 24, 2021, boasts of educational discussions on the latest advancements and best practices in small animal medicine and exciting online networking opportunities. Sessions will be available on-demand for 3 months following the Congress. For more information about the conference, go here.
