When using the Meetup platform to connect either virtually or in person, all members and organizers must adhere to local laws, rules, and regulations—including those regarding COVID-19. Meetup may close groups or cancel events if they promote activities that do not comply with requirements and guidance issued by government authorities and public health officials, including the CDC and the WHO. In addition, using the Meetup platform to disseminate harmful misinformation—medical or otherwise—is not permitted.
