Health regulation is a set of procedure that helps the health care professionals to deliver their full services to patients especially during spreading of disease while it is endemic so that they could prevent the disease from becoming epidemic or pandemic.
The International Health Regulations (IHR) are an international legal instrument that is binding on 196 countries across the globe, including all the Member States of WHO. Their aim is to help the international community prevent and respond to acute public health risks that have the potential to cross borders and threaten people worldwide.
