Urban planning and design for the COVID-19 era: a rapid review for policy and practice

Urban settings are at the epicentre of COVID-19 and require public health and social policy measures, known as non-pharmaceutical countermeasures, to restrict transmission. This project is a rapid review of interdisciplinary knowledge already published, which examines the relationship between cities and pandemics of coronaviruses as well as current and historical H1N1 influenza pandemics. The specific focus is urban planning and design, with a particular focus on at risk groups, and supporting governance and policy influences.
