Abstract:
BackgroundDisaster risk reduction (DRR) has emerged as a core element of sustainable development. (UN/ISDR 2002). Reducing risk requires long-term engagement (O'Brien 2006), and the actual work of DRR is largely a task for local communities. (Schipper 2006). DRR shares some tenets with preventive medicine (Sidel 1992). As in preventive medicine, risk reduction calls for a basic attitude shift in the minds of many who traditionally get sick first and seek treatment later. The challenge for DRR, as applied to health, is to broaden the focus of disaster management from that of tertiary prevention

However, large numbers of children in the United States do not receive the complete series of immunizations for childhood diseases (i.e., pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus, measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, smallpox) on schedule or at all. Reasons cited for this poor participation range from lack of awareness of the importance of timely immunizations, lack of transportation, long lines at public health clinics, and other realities posed by competing personal priorities.
