We know that we all want to resume our normal lives, but for now, it seems we will remain virtual for a few more weeks. I know I miss seeing all of you and look forward to being at in-person events. So let's take care of each other by following the best practices recommended by our Healthcare professionals and if you have not yet been vaccinated, please consult your trusted Healthcare Professional to make an informed decision. 

Stay safe and protect yourself and those around you.

Warm regards,
IHCC Team
