RISK ASSESSMENT ACCORDING TO WHO ANALYSIS IN SPORTS EVENTS

Risk assessment before COVID-19 at mass events: key considerations

The following control table will allow organizers to review the main considerations to consider when holding an event, and thus share the results of their risk
assessment with COVID-19 in relation to the event. This control table will help organizers understand and manage any additional aspects of COVID-19. During event
planning, it should be reviewed periodically. It will be updated and contrasted with the updated guidelines and current status reports available on the WHO website
immediately before giving way to the operational phase. This is especially important when considering the rapid spread of the coronavirus outbreak. The risk
assessment before COVID-19 will be coordinated and integrated with the coVID-19 risk assessment carried out by the host country and should include relevant
information from the local public health authority, in addition to the aspects consulted in the updated WHO technical guides to ensure that the updated assessment on
the epidemiological situation is available.

                                     Risk AssessmentPlee you answer the following questions with a "YES" or "No":
