Covid-19 and the MoSRT 2020 Annual Conference
Dear MoSRT Member:
The MoSRT has been closely monitoring the developing COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation. At this time, the Board of Directors has made the decision to cancel the Annual MoSRT Conference due to the CDC recommendations for the COVID-19 virus. The health and safety of our members is our number one priority and limiting exposure to help prevent the spread of this virus in large group settings. Many colleges and healthcare facilities have placed travel bans on employees and students to help protect their staff and this therefore has caused logistical challenges for the Society. The Society is making every effort to reschedule the conference. Information will be distributed once the Board of Directors meets and has the opportunity to discuss potential dates and hotel availability.
As radiologic technologists and radiography students attending our conference are coming from and returning to hospitals on the front lines of caring for people who are most vulnerable to the COVID-19 infection, it is in the best interests of the citizens of Missouri for the MoSRT.
Please bear with us as full refunds are processed to registrants that have previously paid. Contact janet.akers@mosrt.org with any questions regarding refunding. If you have already made a hotel reservation using the MoSRT code, the hotel will be canceling your reservations for you and will notify you when completed.
Additional information regarding conference exhibits, essays, and scholarships are forthcoming.
We truly regret to inform you of this decision; however, your health is of utmost importance to the MoSRT. Providing continuing education, advocating, and your support is very important to the MoSRT, however you and your student’s health are of utmost importance.
Best Regards,
MoSRT Board of Directors
