2021 COVID-19 Policy — Subject to Change for 2022
To protect the ECEF community, the following precautions were taken for ECEF 2021:

• Vaccination or Negative PCR Test Required — All ECEF 2021 attendees must be vaccinated against COVID-19 or provide a negative PCR test completed 72 hours prior to arrival at the event. You will be able to upload proof of your vaccination or your negative test result with “Elsie” the ECEF 2021 event bot. Elsie will introduce herself to you via your mobile number.
• Mask Mandate — All individuals must abide by Hyatt’s mandate to wear masks throughout the venue. This includes restrooms, lobbies, and elevators in addition to our meeting rooms.
• Social Distancing — We have designed a floorplan that provides social distancing for our sessions, meals, reception, and networking.
• Merv 13 Air Filtration — The Hyatt Regency Crystal City is equipped with a high-end air Merv 13 filtration system recommended by the CDC and American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
• Contract Tracing — We have contracted a third-party to provide contact tracing devices for all attendees to wear during the event. These devices use Bluetooth low energy technology to determine precise exposure information, without compromising privacy, if an individual self-reports infection.
• Health Checks — We will be conducting health checks administered through Elsie the event bot.
