Description: The World Assembly,

Understanding that there are many communicable diseases which spread easily if they are not treated hastily;

Noting that there are times when some communicable diseases cannot be treated hastily;

Realizing that such diseases should instead be promptly contained to prevent an international epidemic;

Hereby

1) Tasks the Epidemic and Pandemic Alert and Response Center to define as a "serious disease" any disease which is harmful and contagious enough to create the need of a quarantine in the case of an outbreak of the disease;

2) Defines, for the purposes of this resolution:

an "epidemic" as a time, in a nation, when there are enough people with the same serious disease(as defined by the EPARC) to significantly decrease the nation's functioning and/or well-being;

an "infected person" as any person with a serious disease in a nation undergoing an epidemic of that disease;

a "quarantine" as any area where infected persons are kept in isolation in order to halt the spread of the disease;

a "treatment" as any action done to an infected person with the purpose of:

curing the infected person;

rendering the infected person non-contagious;

ensuring the infected person does not undergo any unnecessary harm; and/or

ensuring the infected person is not deprived of any necessities a non-infected person would normally receive;

3) Urges that all member nations, in the event of an epidemic in their nation, screen for any infected persons in that nation not yet known to be infected;

4) Requires that all member nations, to the best of their capability:

create at least one quarantine per epidemic in the nation;

move all infected persons into the appropriate quarantine that is nearest to their current location;

provide every treatment to all infected persons that are in a quarantine while taking any available precaution to ensure that the people administering these treatments are not infected;

move anyone that ceases to be an infected person out of the quarantine;

disband any quarantine that ceases to be of use; and

5) Mandates that the EPARC cover the costs of the requirements in clause 4 for any member nation that has difficulty maintaining quarantines.

I've voted against it as it infringes on peoples' rights by forcing screenings of all people. While it would be good to have, I do not believe an epidemic is likely to happen in a nation such as my own that has such high standards of healthcare.

Off topic: Why is this in this area? This is not an actual vote within the Grand Assembly of the Phoenix. You should request your own voting area for WA bills if you find it necessary.
This was moved here as it is much more likely to be seen and voted on by people than it would have/has been in the WA forums. But a two/three people turn out is truly disappointing.
That's because the WA forum is perfectly visible, more visible than this subforum actually. Visibility is not your problem.

And I would appreciate it if these posts weren't made to mimic actual binding legislation that people come here to vote on.
It isn't? Then what is, in your opinion?
The Problem: Very few people, especially on our offsite forum care about WA Resolutions, this goes double for GA Resolutions.

Possible Solutions: Either bring the discussion gameside to the people that actually do care, or bring the people that do care here.

Hmm. Noted.
