The annual meeting by the World Economic Forum WEF has now been pushed back to the summer due to the concerning spread of the Omicron Covid variant. Political and business leaders across the globe were slated to attend. The WEF will not host its anual meeting in Davos as planned in January, the organization announced. The event, which draws politicians, business executives and other major global players, has been moved back as worries grow over the spread of the Omicron Coronavirus variant. The meeting in the Swiss resort town of Davos was slated to take place from January 17 to 22, but has now been moved to “early summer,” reported DW.
“Current pandemic conditions make it extremely difficult to deliver a global in-person meeting,” the WEF said in the statement, pointing specifically to the emergence of the Omicron variant. “Despite the meeting’s stringent health protocols, the transmissibility of omicron and its impact on travel and mobility have made deferral necessary,” organizers said. Participants, however, can participate in an online session that will still take place next month. “Public-private cooperation has moved forward throughout the pandemic and that will continue apace. We look forward to bringing global leaders together in person soon,” said WEF head Klaus Schwab, as reported by DW
