More importantly, was Poland kicked out?

Unfortunately, only the suspension was extended, although the Polish Curling Association stands that in 5 years curling will stop existing because all the ice rinks will have to be closed due to global warming and energy crisis.

WCF wants to have really hard evidence, which means either the court decision about the liquidation of PCA or the opinion of the Polish NOC, which doesn't really seem to care :/

Also, more curling on YouTube this weekend, a mixed doubles tournament from St Gallen, Switzerland.

Is this permanent or only because of COVID-19?

I believe this had to do with qualification complications due to Covid-19.
