WHO Country & Technical Guidance
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the WHO’s essential role is to collect data, evaluate it, and advise countries on how to respond. Some countries experienced difficulty balancing the demands of responding to COVID-19 with maintaining the delivery of other health services. To help these countries, the WHO’s guidance includes a list of actions that countries should consider for maintaining access to high-quality essential health services for all. Since January 2020, more than 100 documents for COVID-19 were published and reviewed by WHO teams and experts from around the world. About half of these documents are technical guidance, such as how to find and test cases, how to provide safe and appropriate care for people depending on the severity of their illness, how to trace and quarantine contacts, how to prevent transmission, how to protect health care workers, and how to help communities to respond appropriately. It suggests that a country’s health decision makers can adapt the guidance for their country context (WHO Country and Technical Guidance, 2020).
