For the foreseeable future, scheduled meetings of the Ostomy Association of New York will continue to be conducted via Zoom. (Meetings are also accessible via non-rotary phones). While we were fortunate to have had in-person meetings in the Einhorn Auditorium at Lenox Hill Hospital for many years, the current Zoom format optimizes the health and safety of OANY’s members, and the larger ostomy community we seek to serve. Not all are eligible for vaccination, and individuals with various health issues and compromised immunity remain at elevated risk. Infections and re-infections can occur in persons who have been vaccinated and boosted. The risk remains of developing "long Covid", a severely debilitating, potentially fatal, and as yet poorly understood, complication. We want to emphasize that, in addition to our scheduled Zoom meetings, persons who have questions, concerns, or issues to discuss regarding living with an ostomy are encouraged to contact us via phone at 212-864-1968, or by
e-mail: watkindkl@oanewyork.org.
