4. Online International Conference 2022

The Society is planning an International on-line conference for May 10th to 12th 2022. The details of how this will run are currently being decided but it is intended that there will be sessions of maybe 3 hours long to occur at different times to best suit the various sections of the Society. Obviously there is no one slot that will suit all so recordings will be made available. It should be possible to set timings so that they take place at a convenient time for at least two of the geographical areas where we have Sections.

There will be a registration fee for the Conference and there will be opportunities for sponsorship. We will be calling for papers on any topic to do with respiratory protection shortly. Obviously, protection against infectious disease will be a major theme.
