"Three deaths at a resort in the Bahamas called attention to the dangers of the odorless gas. In the U.S., where it often takes multiple poisonings for hotels to install alarms, a debate about detector policies has been intensifying... Though smoke alarms are normally required in American hotel rooms, no state and few hotel brands require in-room carbon monoxide detectors, which can be purchased for as little as $30."
