Anime Expo despite Coronoavirus concerns

[Jumballi]

Despite many major conventions closing for the year because of the obvious pandemic killing tens of thousands of people, one convention is moving along with expectations to still happen in July.

"Anime Expo 2020 is still planned to take place as scheduled in Los Angeles in early July, and our team is working hard to deliver a fun and memorable experience for our attendees. With that being said, the health and safety of our community is our number one priority. During the coming weeks, we will continue to monitor the situation, review the guidance by global health authorities, and consider all factors as it relates to the Anime Expo community."

To be fair, if I was a virus; I wouldn't wanna infect weebs. Who knows what I could catch from them.

This is a day my team and I hoped wouldn’t come, but it is with a heavy heart that I am announcing the cancellation of Anime Expo 2020.
