How sources are selected
- Primary public-health or emergency-management guidance is preferred over summaries.
- Jurisdiction-specific instructions are labelled and never presented as universal.
- Scientific assessments support context; incident authorities control live actions.
- Commercial relationships never determine safety recommendations.
- Material changes create a new review date and evidence record.

Research dataset
The working research library currently contains 65 authoritative sources, a 100-topic content backlog and a historical inventory of more than 700 recoverable URL candidates from PrepareNow.org and Prepare-Now.com. These working files are used for editorial planning; individual public pages will cite the evidence they directly use.
