I think Dan and Richard are right.
Until I see an official travel warning from the government, and given the current situation, Bangkok is as save as London or

Let's try to avoid to stampede and remember 2013: we did not had such a discussion calling to cancel any meeting in the
US after April 15 that year.
Best,
Marc
