Abstract
We show that any Riemannian metric conformal to the round metric on , for , arises as a limit of a sequence of Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on in the sense of uniform convergence of Riemannian distance. In particular, non-negativity of scalar curvature is not preserved under such limits.
