Public Health Emergency

A Public Health Emergency is a situation where there is an imminent threat to the health of a community or population, such as a disease outbreak, natural disaster, or bioterrorism. During such emergencies, authorities may activate special measures to prevent the spread of illness, protect resources, and ensure public safety. These actions could include mobilizing healthcare resources, issuing warnings, or implementing restrictions. The goal is to rapidly respond to protect people's health and minimize harm until normal conditions can be restored.
