Health emergency Emergencia Public health emergencies are defined as https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.go https://www.who.int/emerge
much by their health consequences as by
their causes and precipitating events.5–7 A
situation becomes emergent when its health
consequences have the potential to
overwhelm routine community capabilities to
ncies/es/
address them. Thus, the proposed definition
https://busquedas.elperuan
focuses on situations “whose scale, timing,

preparedness instead of focusing on a
