The revised international health regulations offer a framework that can be used by host countries to organise public health activities for mass gatherings. From June 8, to July 1, 2012, Poland and Ukraine jointly hosted the Union of European Football Associations European Football Championship Finals (Euro 2012). More than 8 million people from around the world congregated to watch the games. Host countries and international public health agencies planned extensively to assess and build capacity in the host countries and to develop effective strategies for dissemination of public health messages. The effectiveness of public health services was maximised through rapid sharing of information between parties, early use of networks of experienced individuals, and the momentum of existing national health programmes. Organisers of future mass gatherings for sporting events should share best practice and their experiences through the WHO International Observer Program. Research about behaviour of large crowds is needed for crowd management and the evidence base translated into practice. A framework to measure and evaluate the legacy of Euro 2012 is needed based on the experiences and the medium-term and long-term benefits of the tournament.
修订后的《国际卫生条例》为接待国组织大型集会的公共卫生活动提供了一个框架。2012 年 6 月 8 日至 7 月 1 日,波兰和乌克兰联合主办了欧洲足球协会联盟欧洲足球锦标赛决赛(Euro 2012)。来自世界各地的 800 多万人聚集在一起观看比赛。主办国和国际公共卫生机构进行了广泛的规划,以评估和增强主办国的能力,并制定有效的公共卫生信息传播策略。通过各方之间快速信息共享、尽早利用经验丰富的个人网络以及现有国家卫生计划的势头,最大限度地提高了公共卫生服务的效果。未来举办体育赛事的大型集会活动的组织者应通过世卫组织国际观察员计划分享最佳做法和经验。需要对大型人群的行为进行研究,以便进行人群管理,并将证据转化为实践。需要根据锦标赛的经验以及中期和长期利益,建立一个衡量和评估 Euro 2012 遗产的框架。
