As a matter of precaution to help mitigate the impact of the Coronavirus in the United States, many large events and public gatherings have been canceled or postponed. This week, every major professional sports league postponed play, and many major school districts have cancelled classes. Numerous trade shows and conventions have also been canceled, and several events in the meat and poultry industry have been affected.
In a statement released today, The North American Meat Institute said it continues to monitor the evolving situation regarding coronavirus both domestically and internationally. “Due to this public health emergency, it is impossible to move forward with NAMI’s Meat Industry Summit as planned. In close consultation with members, authorities in Texas, and the J.W. Marriott, we made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Meat Industry Summit in San Antonio, Texas.
