Answer:

Pandemics are large-scale outbreaks of infectious disease that can greatly increase morbidity and mortality over a wide geographic area and cause significant economic, social, and political disruption. Evidence suggests that the likelihood of pandemics has increased over the past century because of increased global travel and integration, urbanization, changes in land use, and greater exploitation of the natural environment (Jones and others 2008; Morse 1995).

Explanation:

When a disaster such as a flood, hurricane, or earthquake occurs within the United States, the Federal Emergency Manangement Agency (FEMA) is responsible for coordinating assistance and resources to the particular region. FEMA, a branch of the Department of Homeland Security, was created in 1979.

Government’s role in disaster management is to address the degree of risk present within an emergency situation. Hazardous conditions may be present, such as polluted water supplies, damaged power lines, and inadequate housing. When needed, civil defense units such as the National Guard may be called to maintain order within a disaster situation. Emergency management also involves providing the support necessary to prepare and rebuild a community in the aftermath of a disaster.
