NFT New York City (NFT.NYC) arranged a three-day conference that brought the NFT community together in NYC for debates, talks, and workshops through June 20-23, 2022. The program was glamorous and successful. However, it infected people with covid 19.
Multiple sources have reported that many attendees have contracted the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) after the event. Many Twitter users share their testimonies about the situation, and there is a general call to everyone who attended the event to carry out the COVID test.
Earlier on June 18, a verified user, Satwik Sethi, appealed to the public that people with COVID or COVID-like symptoms should not attend the NFT.NYC program in the interest of all. “It doesn’t matter if you’re wearing a mask or expecting others to be vaccinated. Immunocompromised people do exist, and vaccinated people can still become carriers who can transmit it to their family members or local community members,” he said. Be responsible and not selfish.”
NFT.NYC is the largest NFT conference in the world. This year’s event features more than 15,000 artists and enthusiasts and more than 1,500 speakers at multiple venues in the heart of New York. NFT.NYC co-founder Jody Rich said he conceived the idea of launching NFT.NYC in 2018 while dining with OpenSea co-founder and CEO Devin Finzer.
