Lack of satisfactory progress in mainstreaming disaster risk reduction within development is attributed to various factors. One of the important factor that is often not much appreciated is the inadequate comprehension of mainstreaming and the absence of clear, cogent and practical guidelines, tools... and techniques for mainstreaming DRR within development. This Guidebook helps to tackle this challenge by providing strategic and practical guidelines on how to mainstream disaster risk reduction into their policies plans and programmes across key sectors. It discusses strategic approaches towards risk resilient development in the Asia-Pacific region and demonstrates how to operationalize them using examples from various countries in the region. These guidelines can be adopted by countries according to their specific contexts, resources and capacities.

La presente publicación describe la evidencia científica disponible sobre la precisión diagnóstica de las pruebas rápidas de detección de antígenos para SARS-COV-2. El conocimiento de las pruebas diagnósticas para el coronavirus del síndrome respiratorio agudo grave 2 (SARS-COV-2) sigue evo...lucionando, y una comprensión clara de la naturaleza de las pruebas y la interpretación de sus hallazgos es importante. Este punto de vista describe cómo interpretar 2 tipos de pruebas diagnósticas comúnmente en uso para las infecciones SARS-COV-2: reacción en cadena de polimerasa con transcriptasa reversa (RT-PCR) y ensayo por inmunoabsorción ligado a enzimas IgM e IgG (ELISA)— y cómo los resultados pueden variar con el tiempo.
