| description |
Pakistan along with all UN member
states has been a signatory to the International Health
Regulations (IHR) 2005 which calls for countries to work
together to prevent, detect, and respond to public health
emergencies under the IHR (2005). The signatory countries
have also agreed to work towards Universal Health Coverage
and to build resilient health systems which can adapt and
respond to the challenges posed by outbreaks and other
health hazards and emergencies of national and international
concern. The purpose and scope of the IHR (2005) are very
broad. According to Article 2 of the IHR, the purpose and
scope of the Regulations are “to prevent, protect against,
control and provide a public health response to the
international spread of disease in ways that are
commensurate with and restricted to public health risks, and
which avoid unnecessary interference with international
traffic and trade.” In 2021 with the promulgation of the
National Institute for Health (NIH) Ordinance, the
reorganization of the NIH to National Public Health
Institutes was initiated with the core functions of disease
surveillance and response, public health laboratories, and
research. This meant that as per the JEE and NAPHS, which
lay out the various functions of IHR-GHSA under the three
pillars conceptual framework for Integrated Disease
Surveillance (IDSR) that comprises Prevent-Detect-Respond
capacities, the newly constituted NIH required an assessment
of current and future health workforce capacities in the
country The findings in the report are organized by the
three pillars of IDSR:1) Prevent, 2) Detect, and 3) Respond.
The gap analysis identified the number of additional health
workforce needed in various categories. This review
concluded that most of the departments in both animal and
human health sectors had urgent requirements for filling
existing sanctioned posts as well as for additional
workforce. Engagement of the requisite workforce, also
requires training needs to be met among the 13 areas of work. |
