This article presents the health effects of some of the more important acute natural disasters and outlines requirements for effective medical response to these events (table 7). In summary, although all disasters are unique in that they affect regions of the world with differing social, economic, and health backgrounds, there are similarities among disasters, which, if recognized can optimize the management of health relief and the use of resources.
本文介绍了一些较为重要的急性自然灾害对健康的影响,并概述了对这些事件进行有效医疗应对的要求(表7)。总之,尽管所有灾害都有其独特之处,因为它们影响着世界上具有不同社会、经济和健康背景的地区,但灾害之间也存在相似之处,如果能够认识到这些相似之处,就可以优化卫生救援管理和资源利用。
