The leaders of the March of the Living announced on Sunday night that, owing to the spread of coronavirus, especially in Europe and United States, this year’s March of the Living in Poland will be postponed.
March of the Living World Chair, Dr. Shmuel Rosenman said, “After consulting with the relevant health bodies and officials, it is with a heavy heart that we are forced to announce the postponement of this year’s March of the Living in Poland. Our primary concern is the health of the many participants and the Holocaust survivors who would be joining them. Given that this is an international event involving 110 delegations from around the world, we have a responsibility to take precautionary measures in accordance with the guidelines given by authorities in various countries.”
