Hi Organizers! The US requires proof of a negative COVID test to enter the country, even for citizens. Will/could you provide some advice or facilities at the conference for getting this? I (and I imagine many others) know literally nothing about the UK health system, am going to have to fly back to the US after the conference, and really don't want to get stuck in airport hell :/

I've been recommended https://www.expresstest.co.uk/, and also biogroup in shoreditch. Both offer same-day results.
Can you recommend some affordable places to stay in nearby event venue?
Is there any slack where we could connect with other attendees?

Otherwise, we encourage attendees to use this exact post to connect with other attendees! The aim is to centralize this kind of coordination and discussion around the forum.
Sidenote: If you are on Discord, there is an #ea-global channel in the EA Corner server. There currently isn't a central workspace on Slack for this. (Disclaimer: I work for CEA and these are my own views, not CEA's).
