Are we assuming it's in July still or you mean would go tomorrow?  A lot depends on if I have had it and where we are at.

It depends on how contained they virus is and how soon vaccines and medications are available. If we’re at the level China is now by, say, next month (HIGHLY doubtful), then I’ll consider it. Also, if we have the option to defer to next year so we don’t have to go through Registration again, I’m taking it, no matter if SDCC is happening this year or not.

Yes, I would go and then self-isolate for at least 14 days whether or not I have symptoms.

Any major medical professional is saying at least 18 months for a vaccine to be ready....so don't think it will be here in July.

agreed, further, the hospitals need to be recover & back to their normal capacity. There's a **lot** of unknowns which is why i made this poll changable. IOW, it's a living poll- if we get into late may & we're still in lots of problems, likely the poll will reflect that.

With the Con’s lines to get into lines, packed rooms, jammed walkways and “security” screaming spittle everywhere, it is a virus’ wet dream. Everyone is in an at-risk group. Take care, stay inside, wash.

Agreed, Newsom's assessment of the upcoming need for hospital beds is scary. The talk of taking over college dorms & hotels is reminiscent of every disaster movie I've ever seen.

Agree.  This whole thing feels very much like a movie.  It's been very surreal.

There is no need to take the risk. Just plan for 2021. And lets hope SDCC lets us keep our badges for next year.

Well, we'll see where things are in April.  I for one am trying to be optimistic here, so we shall see.
