The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) released a report analysing experiences of five EU countries – Croatia, Finland, Germany, Italy and Spain, from the beginning of the pandemic up until COVID-19 vaccines became available at the end of 2020.

The report focuses on testing and surveillance, healthcare sector coordination, and emergency risk communication and identifies specific challenges that were experienced in these areas, as well as successful responses to them.

Implications for measuring preparedness are identified to inform outbreak preparedness efforts in the EU Member States in the future.
