El taller de marzo en Nairobi será virtual
Due to rapidly evolving containment efforts and travel restrictions in response to COVID-19, READY is reconfiguring its East Africa Outbreak Preparedness Planning (OPP) workshop. The workshop will still take place from March 9–11, 2020, but it will be facilitated entirely online.
Knowing that COVID-19 readiness is top-of-mind for many of us, we are also amending the workshop content: It will focus exclusively on NGO readiness for the COVID-19 pandemic, aligned with key pillars within WHO’s COVID-19 Strategic Preparedness and Response Plan, including staff safety and wellness, business continuity, and risk communication and community engagement.
Participants should amend or cancel any travel arrangements they may have already made, and will find revised workshop objectives and a condensed agenda on READY’s community of practice forum.
Seguimiento de casos: Centro de Ciencias e Ingeniería de Sistemas de Johns Hopkins
El Centro de Ciencias e Ingeniería de Sistemas (CSSE) de Johns Hopkins ha creado un Rastreador público de casos de COVID-19, que reúne datos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) de los Estados Unidos, el Centro Europeo para la Prevención y el Control de Enfermedades (ECDC), la Comisión Nacional de Salud de la República Popular China (NHC) y el NHC, y DXY.cn (chino: 丁香园; pinyin: DīngXiāngYuán, una comunidad en línea para médicos, profesionales de la salud, farmacias e instalaciones de atención médica). Los datos detrás de la visualización están disponibles en un Repositorio de GitHub, disponible para descarga pública.
