International Health Regulations (IHRs 2005) is an important
initiative against the spread of zoonotic diseases. It obliges
all Member States to legislate and execute laws for ensuring
the health security of their citizens. Pakistan is a signatory
and has framed rules and laws to protect its citizens against
such diseases but it has a long way to go in terms of
execution, capacity and implementation. This article reviews
the IHRs (2005) and how certain provinces of Pakistan are
more vulnerable (like Khyber Pahktunkhwa) than others
against the perilous spread of infectious diseases.
