WHO Calls for Establishment of Surveillance Systems to Protect High-Risk Individuals During Heatwaves
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a call to governments and local authorities on Wednesday, urging them to establish robust surveillance systems to protect individuals most susceptible to severe symptoms during heatwaves that are currently affecting the northern hemisphere.

People with cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, diabetes, pregnant women, children, and homeless individuals are considered highly vulnerable to the scorching heatwaves experienced in parts of Europe, Asia, and the United States this week.

While the El Nino weather phenomenon is contributing to this year’s heatwave, global warming is exacerbating the situation, leading to erratic weather patterns worldwide.

While certain regions face heatwaves, central and southern parts of South Korea have been enduring heavy rains since last week. Similarly, northern India has witnessed devastating flash floods, landslides, and rainfall-related accidents, resulting in the loss of over 100 lives since the start of the monsoon season on June 1.

The WHO’s recommendation for governments and local authorities to establish surveillance systems aims to proactively monitor and protect those at high risk during heatwaves, ensuring timely interventions and support to minimize the impact on vulnerable populations.
