Operative words
"We've created various contingency plans and approaches but know that all of those fail if someone contracted COVID-19 as the result of attending our international event. For that reason, we are postponing the 49th Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta to October 2-10, 2021." (2020 Balloon Fiesta Update, June 22, 2020, Ex. SEC-06-GM-054)
