(LifeSiteNews) – Previous articles suggested that those who closely follow the U.S. government’s actions on the COVID-19 pandemic may be interested in the federal laws which govern pandemic preparedness. Multiple laws describe who has the federal authority to do what to prepare for pandemics, catastrophic events, and “all hazards.”
This is an important distinction: not only are there laws which govern what the U.S. federal government may do during a real pandemic or catastrophic event, but there are also laws governing authority to prepare for a pandemic.
Some of these laws are found in the Public Health Service Act, which has been amended multiple times. Recent articles have explained some of those amendments. The most recent article discussed that in 2019, only a few months before the reported outbreak of COVID-19, the Public Health Service Act was amended by what was called the “Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness and Advancing Innovation Act of 2019’’ (henceforth referred to as the “Pandemic Act of 2019”), which was passed on June 24, 2019.
