Updated 22 April 2022: Like many countries, the Portuguese authorities have removed the requirement to wear masks indoors. Due to the size of the event and to protect any vulnerable attendees, ESCMID strongly recommends masks are worn indoors during ECCMID. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.
In full compliance with local laws and regulations, ESCMID is working on a variety of health and safety precautions for the congress to ensure maximum safety for its participants. This plan may include changes to the event layout, crowd management and/or timetables to ensure adequate physical distancing and/or physical barriers where necessary, as well as an updated cleaning and disinfection protocol for cleaning and housekeeping contractors.
