RE: [ihc] RE: International Health Continuum (IHC) TC IPR Transition Ballot
Mary,

 

It looks like I was the only one to vote on the ballot - but anyway -
yes - I confirm that my vote is yes.

 

Hope either John or Rex can view the ballot like OK and also
vote.

 

Thanks, DW

To all Voting Representatives:

Please note that a problem was identified earlier today (26 March) with
the Kavi ballot that resulted in the removal of

all individual/associate members from the list of eligible voters. The
voting list has been restored; however

individual/associate members may not have had their vote properly
restored. I am asking each individual/associate member

noted below to cast a ballot via email; I will announce the official
results. 

My apologies for the inconvenience.

Regards,

Mary
