It implies that the situation at stake is unusual, serious and of sudden onset. It determines implications that affect public health beyond the national border of the state where the emergency is detected; and may require immediate international collaborative action. The IHR are an instrument of international law that is legally-binding on 196 countries, including the 194 WHO Member States. The IHR grew out of the response to deadly epidemics yet the new 2005 IHR also imply other nature of events besides predefined infectious diseases. They create rights and obligations for countries, including the requirement to report public health events and they outline the criteria to determine whether or not a particular event constitutes a PHEIC.
