Earlier today it was announced that Geneva 2020 has had to be cancelled due to coronavirus; following a ruling by the Swiss government to ban gatherings of more than 1,000 people. It follows the spread of the virus throughout Europe, with the first recorded incident in Switzerland two days ago; it’s already caused widespread quarantining in affected areas in neighbouring Italy, which has been particularly hard hit.
