The World Health Organization (WHO) is offering a Consolidated Ebola Virus Disease Preparedness Checklist, based on efforts by various national and international institutions including WHO, CDC and UN OCHA.

It identifies 10 key components and tasks for both countries and the international community that should be completed within 30, 60 and 90 days respectively from the date of issuing this list. Minimal required resources in terms of equipment and material as well as human resources are defined. Key reference documents such as guidelines, training manuals and guidance notes will help technical experts to implement required action in the key components.
