Evidence to recommendations: COVID-19 mitigation in the aviation sector

Overview

The COVID-19 pandemic is having a large-scale impact on international travel and trade, particularly in the aviation sector. WHO is conducting systematic reviews of the scientific literature and assessing high-quality data in grey literature on the effectiveness, safety, and potential harms of various public health mitigation measures for SARS-CoV-2 transmission implemented before, during, and after air travel, including at points of entry. The resulting knowledge products will be published as a series of scientific briefs or interim guidance documents as applicable. This document describes the process that WHO will undertake to synthesize the available data.
