The main actions that must be taken to ensure that sports events are carried out safely in accordance with the Italian Governmental, World Rowing and the Organising Committee guidelines, are the following:

  2. Wash hands with soap and water for at least 30 seconds or, if not possible use hand sanitiser gel or disinfectant.
  3. Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth.
  4. Using correct hygiene for coughs and sneezing (use of disposable tissues).
  5. Keep a safe distance (not less than 1.5m) and avoid hugs and handshakes.
  6. Avoid gatherings as much as possible to prevent potential risk situations
  7. In the event of a body temperature of 37,5°C or above, or flu symptoms that could be related to Covid-19 infection, stay home, and promptly notify the Organising Committee for the necessary containment measure to be taken.
  8. If symptoms appear after entry to the event area, notify the Team Doctor immediately to assess isolation and activation of the necessary measures.
  9. Disinfect all personal sports equipment frequently.
  10. Disinfect, before and after use, sports equipment made available to all Athletes by the Organising Committee
