What are Some Examples of Social Protection Interventions in Epidemiology?
Several social protection interventions can be linked to epidemiological benefits:
Health Insurance: Ensures that individuals have access to necessary medical care without financial hardship. Unemployment Benefits: Provide financial support to those who have lost their jobs, reducing stress and maintaining mental health. Paid Sick Leave: Allows workers to stay home when ill without losing income, reducing the spread of infectious diseases in workplaces. Social Safety Nets: Programs like food assistance and housing support help maintain basic living standards, which are essential for health.
