Hi - This looks like a pretty good set of parameters. The only things
that stuck out for me were the two items above plus one other item that
I think is missing.
24 hours is either too short or too long and I'm not sure which. It's
unclear to me that there's any useful data that would inform the need
for self-isolation for such a short period of time. Conversely, we're
coming back from 7 or so days in a crowd which might suggest a longer
period. I'm not sure what the right answer is, but I'm pretty sure 24
hours isn't it. Is there guidance (WHO or otherwise) suggesting this
period or another value?
The item I think that may be missing as a disqualifier is "assembly
restrictions that would prohibit the gathering of sufficient IETF
attendees as to make the meeting productive". E.g. "Gatherings of more
than 100 people are prohibited".
Last: I'd suggest "Which must be at warning level 2 or below" vs "Which
must be below warning level 3".
