Flood Recovery Efforts Strengthen Health Resilience in Jammu Kashmir Ramban District

Recent discussions on resilience span from public health strategies for vaccination in the UK's NHS to psychological growth following major trauma such as Hurricane Katrina. The UK government emphasizes shifting from sickness to prevention, highlighting vaccination's role amid NHS changes to maintain immunization rates, especially for diseases like Covid-19, influenza, and RSV (Article 1). Studies on Katrina survivors reveal that despite trauma, many experience post-traumatic growth, with some survivors actively aiding their communities, suggesting resilience can coexist with PTSD and inform disaster relief efforts (Article 2). In Jammu and Kashmir's Ramban district, successful flood relief and healthcare initiatives, including disease screening and expanded insurance coverage, demonstrate resilience through infrastructure rebuilding and public health focus (Article 3). However, floods pose ongoing health risks, including waterborne and vector-borne diseases, as seen in India’s Delhi, Kerala, and Punjab, necessitating immediate medical response plans to build resilience in post-flood health care (Article 5). Collectively, these articles illustrate resilience as a multifaceted concept involving health system adaptation, individual psychological growth, and community recovery after disasters.
