Dear participant in the ESVE Summer School, Bologna 3-9 July 2022.
Despite the problems related to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are confident that we will carry out the ESVE Summer School. Currently, Italian legislation does not provide for restrictions on participation in congresses. July 2020 and July 2021 were months in which the spread of the virus in Italy was minimal, and we are confident that July 2022 will go even better (currently, the number of people vaccinated is very high). But we also know that with this virus, it is difficult to make precise plans.
During the months preceding the Summer School, we will keep you updated on the spread of the virus in Italy and on any new restrictions.
All the rules aimed at limiting the transmission of the virus must be respected. Summer School participants must be vaccinated, have no symptoms potentially related to Covid (e.g. fever, cough or respiratory symptoms), and wear a mask during the congress.
