The Medicon Valley Inhalation Consortium (MVIC) has announced that the 2021 Medicon Valley Inhalation Symposium (MVIS), which was to take place on October 13-14 in Lund, Sweden, has been postponed indefinitely. The MVIC training session scheduled for October 11-12 in Lund will go ahead. MVIC called the postponement, “Very unfortunate, frustrating and even sad.”
According to MVIC, the Swedish government had expected to lift restrictions on meetings with more than 50 people on October 1, 2021; however, because of the increase in COVID-19 cases due to the Delta variant, the government has announced that it will continue the restriction. MVIC is unable to convert MVIS to an online event at this time, so the meeting has been postponed until further notice. The MVIC training session is able to go ahead because it enrolls fewer than 50 people.
