Past emergencies like the Ebola outbreak, H1N1 pandemic, and COVID-19 pandemic have provided valuable lessons:
- Rapid Response is Crucial: Delays can lead to widespread transmission and higher mortality. - Community Engagement: Involving communities in the response efforts can enhance compliance and effectiveness. - Flexibility and Adaptability: Being able to adapt strategies as new information becomes available is essential. - Global Cooperation: International collaboration can significantly enhance response capabilities and resource sharing.
