Question
adapted from Safe and Healthy Travel to a Mass Gathering
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
International events draw huge crowds and come with unique risks to travelers. Whether they are planned years in advance, such as the Olympics, or happen more spontaneously, such as a president's memorial service, mass gatherings present several problems. They are associated with crowding at venues, poor hygiene from temporary food and sanitation facilities, and challenging security situations. The risk of infectious diseases increases because of crowded conditions and the influx of attendees from around the world.
A mass gathering can be thought of as any gathering of people that is large enough to strain local resources. Typically, they involve a large number of people—sometimes numbering in the millions—at a specific location, for a specific purpose, and for a defined time frame.
