Abstract

This chapter emphasizes legal boundaries and national ethical frameworks when public administration develops Health and Biological Hazard Risk Plans (HBHRP). The chapter emphasizes establishing a coordinated framework for strategies, preparedness, and control, particularly before making decisions and managing public health risks. The discussion focuses on international orientations like the Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA), World Health Organization (WHO), and International Development Law Organization (IDLO), which suggest guidelines for enhancing a country's capacity to prevent, detect, and respond to infectious disease outbreaks. International orientation addresses developing nations and less for countries participating in GHSA's exercises. The European Privacy Regulation (GDPR) is an example to explain potential legal conflicts. The chapter examines conflicts between private and public interests while proposing methods to resolve ethical dilemmas and build consensus. It is a priority to the preventive adjustment of the legislation framework before an HBHR plan.
