EERI San Diego Chapter's Webinar Series: Applying Lessons Learned from COVID-19 to Earthquake Preparedness Common Challenges Preparing for Low Frequency/High Risk Events (Earthquakes and Pandemics) Preparing and planning for events that have a low frequency of occurrence, but a high-risk of loss associated with them can have a number of obstacles. These obstacles include changing public perception of risk, communicating information to a non-scientific population, obtaining sustained political and financial support, amongst many others. Panelists will discuss these challenges in the context of our current experiences with COVID-19. The webinar will also discuss how learning from the failures and successes of our experiences with COVID-19 will help counter similar challenges in planning for earthquakes and developing more seismically resilient communities.
