- Abstract
The ODSHI WorkGroup of Turkish Medical Association, examines the extraordinary events and their impacts on health services and community health, from a causative point of view and publicise the results. The late earthquakes were the most devastating ones throughout the modern history of Türkiye. Although we in our workgroup have been discussing how close and possible an Istanbul earthquake was how to cope with, it turned out we were not ready enough, before the appaling scope and consequences of the February Eartquakes of Maraş and Hatay. Neither the state agencies, nor the society. However we tried our best and performed multiple field studies in the most devastated cities of the region, in which we encountered a number of hardships, old and new. In this article, I will try and discuss on those and how we tackled them.
