COVID-19 has changed the way we do business. It is not just on a personal 1-on-1 basis, but it has impacted families, nations and international interactions. The World Association for Medical Law (WAML) usually holds its annual World Congress on Medical Law (WCML) at predetermined locations, which attract experts in health law, legal medicine, bioethics, to congregate in that city, to share ideas, generate contacts, foster research, encourage younger scholars and to cross-pollenate concepts that may later germinate into international collaboration. The year 2020 has seen the COVID Pandemic cause postponement of the summer Olympics but, much more importantly, it has also forced the WAML to cancel its 2020 WCML, in Toronto, Canada, delay elections of WAML office bearers and cause consternation for the editorin-chief of the WAML sponsored journal, Medicine and Law.
