What are the options for having somebody else host or co-host a meeting if the host is incapacitated at short notice before the meeting starts?
Thank you in advance

Thanks. In the end I had to configure it so they could bypass the waiting room and then enter the host key which came out of your second suggestion

You can have several options:
1.) Add alternative host (must be done by the host or a Zoom admin before the meeting starts)
2.) Allow users to join before host (must be enabled by the host or a Zoom admin before the meeting starts
a.) If no host is required, leave as-is
b.) If a host is required, a user who is given the host's Host Key can claim the host role manually in-meeting
