WHO COVID-19 Essential Supplies Forecasting Tool (COVID-ESFT) V3 [august 2020]
August 21, 2020
To assist with the response to the pandemic, the WHO developed the WHO COVID-19 Essential Supplies Forecasting Tool (COVID-ESFT) to allow users to quantify for commodities used in the course of patient and disease management. The current version of the tool covers three categories of essential commodities: personal protective equipment (PPE), diagnostics, and case management. The tool has been designed to be user-friendly, and allow users to quickly estimate commodity needs based on variable assumptions around a specific country’s epidemic.
