Mark your calendars! The CMV Public Health and Policy Conference has been postponed again due to Covid concerns. It will be held August 21-23, 2022 in Ottawa, Ontario Canada.

Dear CMV Public Health and Policy Conference Friends,

As you know, we postponed the 2020 conference to be held in 2021. Like all of you, we have been continuing to closely monitor the global pandemic of COVID-19 and what it could potentially mean for our conference. We also recognize that this may be international travel for many of you, which can take several months to plan. Based on current travel restrictions and the desire to allow more time for people to be fully vaccinated and prepared to travel, the CMV Public Health and Policy Conference (CMV-PHP) planning committee has made the difficult decision to postpone the CMV-PHP once again. Our plan is to have the conference August 21-23, 2022 in Ottawa, Ontario!

The landscape of CMV prevention, screening, and treatment is always changing and one of the goals of the CMV-PHP is to provide the most current research and practice. In an effort to stay true to our goals, we will host some virtual learning opportunities in lieu of the conference. Stay tuned for more information.

For those of you who submitted abstracts in 2020, again, we thank you. Prior to the 2022 conference, we will reach out to see if you would like your 2020 abstract submission to be considered and give you the option to edit it. We will also be opening the abstract submission for new submissions for those of you who were unable to submit or have new research you would like to present. We may also reach out to a few of you to present your research and practice during our virtual learning opportunities.We look forward to welcoming you to Ottawa in 2022 for a great conference.

Sincerely,

CMV-PHP Planning Committee
