Introduction
What is global health?
Earthquake
were reported.
The majority of injury and death in earthquake is trauma caused by collapse of buildings
Victims are unable to escape from the indoor area, such as at home or school.
2016 Tainan earthquake, caused 115 indoor death in the collapsed building.
and
People usually suffer from different levels of physical injury and death due to
Direct
health
the collapse of buildings impact
Fractures, dislocation, wound infections, crush injuries and head trauma are
Injury-related medical procedures such as wound debridement, amputation, and orthopedic service were highly demanded
The needs for injury-related medical, surgical treatments and rehabilitation services could not meet the demand

2. Improve Urban Planning by Local Government

earthquake
1981
E.g.
- Structural
No improvement Standard
- Education
- Preparation
26
Site planning
ensure the most rational organization of space, shelters and facilities
Base isolation
Seismic dampers
Mitigation - Construct earthquake-resistant 28
buildings
1. base isolation
use of flexible material in the base of building
reduce seismic force
introduce flexibility to buildings
create resistance against lateral movement of buildings
(Murty, 2005)
Mitigation- Construct earthquake-resistant 30
buildings
Limitations:
only limited on developed countries
have enough resource to follow the earthquake-resistant technology
limited in less developed countries
the earthquake-resistant technology is costly
specialized material should be used
specialized technicians and workers have to be hired in construction
base isolators are not applicable to all buildings
isolators are only applicable to low or medium rise building rested on hard soil
underneath
(Murty, 2005)
Mitigation- construct earthquake-resistant 31
buildings
Earthquake-resistant building suggestion for less
developed countries:
adobe can provide earthquake-resistant function only when
buildings are appropriately built
low cost, readily available
commonly used by rural people
Procedure:
- Involve the educational content into school syllabus
(Lack of knowledge Low detection rates)
Proper Hand
hygiene
-Emergency toilet
-Prevent crowded
shelter
38
Christchurch Twin No-Mix Emergency
Toilet
The lid will help keep the smell in and insects out
(If a fly gets on the feces and then lands on your food illness)
Prevent fecal-oral transmitted diseases
Preparation:
Prepared by the government
before earthquake occurred
educate how to use the toilet
Response:
Distribute by government until proper
toilet have been built
39
Clean Water
Normally
INGO distribute distilled water
Problem:
Limited resources
Limitation:
Preparation:
-Education
e.g Hand hygiene
Preparation of food (enough heating)
Storage of food (safe temperature)
42
Distribute packaged food
Reduce the chance of
being contaminated
Easy preparation
Easy storages
43
Recovery-Building back better
Since 2000, UNICEF and its partner has supported the vaccination
of 500 million children in the worlds poorest countries
(Unicef, 2011)
