Popis: This article explains how the Disaster Resilience Scorecard, and its Public Health Addendum is an easy to use tool for governments in managing the COVID-19 crisis and ensuring effective recovery and build back better. The underpinning concept is that pandemic management will be enhanced if cities are resilient. In this model, cities need to complete the Disaster Resilience Scorecard for cities and the public health addendum, and then develop and implement action plans. This multisectoral approach could be short-cut in the COVID-19 pandemic by rapidly completing the public health system Scorecard to develop, guide, and implement an action plan for sustainably managing response and recovery.
