I created the post at the risk of it potentially becoming that, but admittedly, the issues affecting the status of SDCC 2021 are somewhat political, whether we like it or not.That said, this is certainly not the place to hold a Biden vs. Trump vs. whomever else debate
_IF_ US elects a new POTUS and _IF_ that POTUS enacts a more aggressive policy Day 1 (or, to be blunt, any policy which would be better than the lack-of Federal national policy we currently have), then _maybe_ things could be OK by next July.
Lingering COVID-19 restrictions are damaging San Diego’s tourism industry, prompting a group of Mission Bay hotels and other businesses to lobby city officials Wednesday for rent deferrals and other relief. The relief requests come on the heels of a new study showing San Diego’s normally robust convention business won’t fully revive until spring or summer 2021 -- at the earliest.The study, conducted by consulting firm Tourism Economics, dashes previous hopes that conventions would return to San Diego this fall or early next year."Major markets are coming to grips with the prospects that virus-related restrictions will prevent many medium and large group meetings through the fourth quarter of 2020 and into the first quarter of 2021," said Colleen Anderson, executive director of the San Diego Tourism Marketing District.

Considering that covid is expected to seasonally spike like other respiratory illnesses, if covid is the concern, it would be worse to hold it in the fall or winter. If covid is too widespread in the summer to hold SDCC, it's not going to be better to hold it in the winter.
On the contrary, it’s been reported that Covid-19 is not seasonal:You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
This thread is becoming way too political. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
Except they probably had a ticket rollover rate of over 90%.
I wouldn't be surprised if SDCC21 is more like 60% - 70% the size it normally is.
