Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) technical guidance: COVID-19 Critical Items
In response to unprecedented demand and severe disruptions to the global supply chain, the Supply Chain Inter-Agency Coordination Cell (SCICC) has established a supply working group to streamline procurement of critical items facing global shortage.
Procurement of the below critical items is centralized, with transactions undertaken by a restricted group of inter-agency buyers operating at global level in response to country demand. The list is subject to continual review and will be updated accordingly.
Requests for supply of the below items must be consolidated at country level through COVID-19 coordination mechanisms (varies per country).
Please note: Until further notice, due to the current evolution of the pandemic and the threat to health system functioning around clinical care, priority for PPE provision is given to health care workers treating critical and severe COVID-19 patients only.

WHO COVID-19 Essential Supplies Forecasting Tool
The WHO COVID-19 Essential Supplies Forecasting Tool (ESFT) is designed to help governments, partners, and other stakeholders to estimate potential requirements for essential supplies to respond to the current pandemic of COVID-19. Although it gives users with an estimation of the number of cases, this calculator is not an epidemiological calculator.
The focus of this tool is to forecast essential supplies: it includes estimation of personal protective equipment, diagnostic equipment, biomedical equipment for case management, essential drugs for supportive care, and consumable medical supplies.
The COVID-19 ESFT tool is intended to be complimentary to the Health Workforce tools (Adaptt and the Workforce Estimator). Both tools use the same base clinical attack rate ranges and classify health workforce using ILO ISCO codes, but their outputs are intentionally different due to their primary focus.
