From SXSW to Coachella, conventions, events and celebrations around the world are being postponed and cancelled as the need to stem the Covid-19 outbreak becomes more imperative.

The latest addition to the list is the G7 meeting that was slated to take place at Camp David, USA in June. US President Donald Trump cancelled the in-person meeting and will instead, hold a video conference.

On the other hand, Japan pledged again that the Tokyo 2020 Olympics will proceed as planned.
