Public health emergencies are increasing worldwide. When there are more people, there is an increase in susceptibility (i.e., more people = more susceptibility). A broader, more extensive framework is necessary to protect communities from public health emergencies.
Please answer the following questions:
- What is the role of public health in times of Population Crises and Emergencies?
- How does the National Response Framework relate to the role of public health?
- How does the Incident Command System improve emergency response?
