ABSTRACT

Public health and regulatory frameworks are interdependent, with public health advancements driving the evolution of health regulations, and health regulations reinforcing public health efforts. This review examines the relationship between public health initiatives and regulatory measures, tracing their historical development, particularly in response to diseases and social change. The focus includes the role of epidemiology, disease surveillance, and health promotion in shaping public health policies. Furthermore, it delves into the challenges governments and international organizations face in implementing effective health regulations, particularly in an increasingly globalized world. Finally, it highlights future directions for adaptive regulation, emphasizing the integration of technology and stakeholder engagement to overcome current public health challenges.
