This should be reviewed regularly during planning and updated immediately prior to the handover to the operational phase especially in light of the rapidly evolving outbreak with reference to the updated guidance and situation reports on the WHO website. The COVID-19 risk assessment for the event must be coordinated and integrated with the host country’s national COVID-19 risk assessment and should include input from the local public health authority, along with consulting WHO’s updated technical guidance and ensuring that there is an up-to-date evaluation of the epidemiological situation.
