This seems amazing. Belgium now requires, BY LAW:

1) public indoor spaces must display CO2 level
2) risk analysis and action plan
3) targets: level A (CO2 < 900 ppm and clean air provided at 40 m3/h/person) and level B (CO2 < 1200 ppm and 25 m3/h/person)

Stop and watch this video.

Whatever you thought about the governors' stunt... it turns out it was worse.

Hey, folks. I'm still a few days from sending out my big Post-Conference Poll. This isn't it yet. But just to take the temperature, if you're reading this and have already tested positive, could you please DM me? SIGGRAPH says only 10 people caught it, and I'm... very skeptical.

#SIGGRAPH2022 / #DigiPro attendees: please follow and promote the SIGGRAPHCO2 account which will live tweet CO2 readings of session rooms, etc., for better COVID risk management: twitter.com/SIGGRAPHCO2

(And if you're also attending with a good CO2 monitor, help us out!)

This account will be used to live-tweet per-session CO2 level readings at SIGGRAPH 2022 and DigiPro. Follow this account SIGGRAPHCO2 or hashtag #SIGGRAPHCO2 . 1/
