An unexpected consequence of the Pandemic and the need to hold meetings via Zoom was to extend the Society’s membership and those atttending virtual meetings well beyond UK shores.
As an example, Volume 89 part 4 of the Medico-Legal Journal (Vol 89 part 4) reflects the continuing international nature of both the journal and the Society itself. That edition included items from Maryland USA, the Punjab, Adelaide, Rome, Malaysia, Pakistan, Nigeria, Nepal and Saudi Arabia.
