In addition to the activities oriented toward the development of sector-specific adaptation enabling environment during the NAP-1, the Human Health Sector implemented actions to strengthen the epidemiological surveillance of vector-borne diseases and health system capabilities to ensure the provision of medical assistance to the population during the heat waves. The data on air quality, surface water, groundwater and soil quality have been monitored and evaluated. In order to improve the capacity of the health sector to adapt to the climate change, a "Guide for investigation and response to outbreaks caused by consumption of unsafe food and water" was developed and widely distributed among health sector practitioners, along with guidance on the implementation of good practices for managing medical waste.
