Deaths[edit]
The 2020–22 COVID-19 pandemic killed over a dozen fans, beginning with Brian Varley on March 31, 2020:
| Name | From | Date of death |
|---|---|---|
| Karen Babcock | Bellevue, Washington | October 21, 2020 |
| John Bangsund | Melbourne, NSW, Australia | August 22, 2020 |
| Tom Barber | Ann Arbor, Michigan | April 4, 2020 |
| Ben Bova | Naples, Florida | November 29, 2020 |
| Glenn Chambers | Toledo, Ohio | July 19, 2020 |
| Greg Eide | Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania | May 20, 2021 |
| Al Fitzpatrick | New Jersey | April 6, 2020 |
| Jomil Mulvey | San Diego, California | July 11, 2020 |
| Darroll Pardoe | Birmingham, UK | January 28, 2021 |
| John Sardegna | New York, NY | April 2020 |
| Sylvain St-Pierre | Montreal, QC, Canada | March 25, 2021 |
| Brian Varley | Pedmore, Stourbridge, U.K. | March 31, 2020 |
| Richard C. West | Madison, WI | November 29, 2020 |
Non-Anglophone countries[edit]
Every sizable fandom in the world is likely to have their Covid victims, although the coverage here can obviously be only spotty:
- Belarus – Sergey Bulyga (or Siarhey Bulyha, 1953 – 24 October 2021), writer and editor of Kosmoport (European SF Award for Best Magazine 2014).
- Czechia – Jaroslav Mostecký (1958 – 13 December 2020), fan and writer (European Science Fiction Society Encouragement Award 1995); and Jiří Engliš (1960 – 9 March 2021), translator (a. o. of David Weber).
…
Others Affected[edit]
Fans who were badly stricken with the novel coronavirus include Amy L. Woolard of Chicago, who was hospitalized for many months, and Susan Chambers, Glenn’s wife. Author David Weber was also hospitalized in January 2021.
Author Neil Gaiman and his wife and son were stranded in New Zealand in March 2020 when lockdowns occurred. (He then attracted much criticism by travelling to his Scottish house in May, as their marital breakup was aired on social media.)
Covid-related shutdowns forced conventions to cancel across the globe from mid-March 2020 onwards. The Columbus 2020 NASFiC’s initial cancellation announcement, saying they weren’t planning to issue refunds but to print a souvenir book instead, evoked a lot of fannish ire.
CoNZealand, the 2020 Worldcon, decided, with less than four months notice, to hold a virtual Worldcon, the first of its kind. Many other cons were postponed or held as online events.
2020 TAFF Race winner Mike Lowrey indefinitely postponed his trip, and the 2021 TAFF Race was canceled. 2020 GUFF Race winner Alison Scott and 2020 DUFF Race winner Erin Underwood participated in the virtual CoNZealand, but postponed their trips indefinitely. The 2020 NAFF race was cancelled.
The Nice in 2023 Worldcon bid folded, and Memphis in 2023 withdrew, both blaming the pandemic.
Corflu Heatwave, held March 13–15, 2020, in College Station, Texas, may have been the last “live” sf con held in 2020. In-person conventions started up again in late 2021, but spikes of Covid cases, in particular the Omicron variant again caused concoms to cancel, delay or move to online status.
In response to all the convention cancellations, on March 12, 2020, some fans started a "virtual" con group on Facebook called Concellation 2020 (later Concellation 2021).
