The global Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 has continued to spread to areas of the world beyond China with an accelerating and unpredictable trajectory. Per the World Health Organization (WHO), this threat will likely grow. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that the virus is expected to impact the United States in a more severe way than it has to date, although when and to what degree is still unknown.

Our first priority—now and always—is the health and safety of our staff and members. AACE is closely monitoring the information being shared about the virus and will take the precautions needed to promote the health and safety of our staff and members attending the EMBRAACE annual meeting. We will regularly review our schedule in light of revised CDC and WHO reports and make any updates as necessary.
