About a year after the concert experiment with pop star Tim Bendzko in the Arena Leipzig, scientists and technicians have started a new project in Halle.
The question is: "How can we evaluate rooms in the future, whether they are safe from an infection protection point of view or not," said infectiologist Stefan Moritz.
Under the motto "Restart 2.
Hall - 0 “began the first aerosol measurements on Tuesday.
The results of the experiment should be available by the beginning of 2022.
The aim is to develop uniform criteria for an evaluation system for the safety of events with full capacity.
According to their own statements, doctors and technicians are using new methods to investigate the flow conditions in the room air for the experiment.
The project also includes computer simulations, emphasized Moritz.
It is important to find out how high the risk of infection with viruses is for visitors to events in rooms with and without a ventilation system.
In Halle, medical puppets and measuring devices were used to kick off the experiment in the puppet theater, which has around 100 seats.
Audience was not present.
A total of ten rooms are planned for the experiment in Germany, including five in Berlin such as the Friedrichstadtpalast, four theaters in Halle and the arena in Leipzig.

Experts from the Technical University (TU) Berlin and the Charité Universitätsmedizin are involved in the experiment, led by the Halle University Medical Center.
It is supported with 650,000 euros from the state of Saxony-Anhalt, the federal government and the TU Berlin.
The bottom line was that the concert experiment under the motto "Restart -19" with pop star Tim Bendzko 2020 in the Leipzig Arena had shown that large cultural and sporting events in halls are possible even during a pandemic.
However, only under certain conditions - with fewer spectators than usual, an adequate ventilation system with fresh air supply, strict hygiene and distance rules, permanent mask requirement and controls.
