Playbooks for Beijing 2022 published

Lausanne (IOC/FIL) The International Olympic Committee (IOC), the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and the Beijing Organising Committee for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games (Beijing 2022) today published the first editions of the Beijing 2022 Playbooks.

These Playbooks are the basis of the game plan to ensure that all Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games participants and the people of China stay safe and healthy for the Games.

They have been developed jointly by Beijing 2022, the IOC and the IPC, in close collaboration with the Chinese Government and relevant authorities.

The principles and COVID-19 countermeasures are based on the extensive work of an international working group, in collaboration with scientific experts and organisations from across the world. They build upon the experience of International Federations and sports event organisers who have enabled other successful large-scale events to take place, and upon the needs of the athletes.

The vaccination policy, a “closed-loop” management system and daily testing are among the COVID-19 countermeasure principles that will ensure that the Games take place successfully and safely.

Please take time to understand the plans, the steps you must take and the rules you must follow. The success of these Games depends on all participants playing their part.

The next version of the Playbook will be published in December.
