Editorially checked: 10 November 2026. A recent review does not make an older document a new warning.

How to use the guidance

Prepare a backpack for rapid evacuation; SINAGIR’s listed drinking water and food quantities cover one day only.
Keep important family/home documents together in a sealed plastic bag; carry emergency contacts on paper.
Plan roles for all family members, including children, older adults and anyone needing assistance. Keep the plan visible, practise it and revise it.
Adapt clothing, medication and personal items to household needs and the local hazard; follow current official instructions.

One-day emergency backpack

One day of bottled drinking water and food (the page lists canned food, crackers and chocolate).
First-aid kit and regular prescription medicines.
Whistle, matches/candles and flashlight with batteries.
Paper emergency contacts, cash and copies of family/home documents sealed in plastic.
Hand sanitiser, toilet paper, warm clothing and blankets.
House and vehicle keys.

Household plan

Agree responsibilities for household members, including children, older adults and people with support needs.
Place the plan somewhere visible and accessible.
Practise the plan and update it as household circumstances change.

The checklist covers the scope stated above. Quantities from different countries are not interchangeable: drinking-only, cooking, hygiene and carry-bag allowances differ. Tick marks are temporary and are not sent to us.

Equipment mentioned in official lists still needs appropriate use: outdoor-only combustion equipment stays outside; respiratory filters must match the hazard. Follow current local instructions and the full source documents.

Editorial assessment

A preparedness checklist establishes what people are encouraged to do. It does not, by itself, establish the probability, cause or date of a future crisis. No additional independently sourced theory has been added to this profile.
