What the published preparedness guidance says, and how to interpret it.
What households are asked to do
The national basic household checklist specifies three days of basic drinking-water and food needs. It also lists a torch, radio, whistle, first-aid materials and hygiene items.

Published 29 November 2020, 06:01.
Editorially checked: 10 November 2026. A recent review does not make an older document a new warning.
How to use the guidance
- Provide three days of basic food and drinking needs; keep equipment charged and accessible.
- The table’s water figure is a stated basic reserve, not a complete all-use daily requirement.

Safety and information
First aid and hygiene
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.

War, disruption & other explanations
The page dates to November 2020. Presenting it as a newly issued 2026 worldwide warning would be misleading.
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.
