Overview
As the Covid-19 crisis broke out in 2020, food businesses in particular, were desperate for evidence-based information and advice on how they could continue operating safely to feed the nation. IFST convened a Covid-19 Advisory Group to signpost information and generate reliable guides where information was sparse. At one point, there were over 200 resources on this hub. Some remain highly relevant or have become ongoing best practice for managing any respiratory disease risk. These are maintained on this hub. Others have now been archived.
We appreciate the input from IFST Covid-19 Advisory Group for their incredible voluntary work at a time of need.
