IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL MEMBERS
Re: COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus) Chamber Event (April)

 

As members would now be aware, the World Health Organization (WHO) has officially declared COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus) a global pandemic.

The rapid spread of this virus is serious with some recent cases in NSW being reported where those infected have not travelled overseas. This means that the virus is now being passed from person to person locally.

After considering updates and information from the Federal and State governments, along with that of the WHO and the Chief Medical Officer (CMO), the Chamber has made the decision to cancel our scheduled lunch event for April 2020.

This is merely a precautionary action so as not to have you, our valued members, bought together in a large group where this may allow for any infection (should this exist) to be easily passed to others.

Information in relation to COVID-19 can be found  at: https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/Infectious/alerts/Pages/coronavirus-faqs.aspx#1-9-2

We will of course add an event to the calendar later in the year and continue to strive to provide a quality line of informative and relevant speakers.

Thank you all for your understanding of this action.

Yours sincerely

Rod Dever - Chamber President
