In the context of the refugees fleeing the war in Ukraine, ECDC, UNHCR, UNICEF and WHO published a document which highlights key considerations for on-site assessment of refugee transit points and accommodation centres in the EU/EEA countries.
This issue of the ECDC Communicable Disease Threats Report (CDTR) covers the period 29 May-4 June 2022 and includes updates on West Nile virus infection, COVID-19, Influenza, people displaced from Ukraine, hepatitis, Ebola, monkeypox, cholera, chikungunya and dengue.
This document serves as an advocacy and quick assessment tool for public health responders in refugee-hosting countries to evaluate and strengthen EWAR capacities in the two principal settings relevant to refugee and population health.
