Introduction

My paper will focus on a health communication plan campaign regarding health security development in my community. Globally public health security is established as being both reactive and proactive activities required for the minimization and reduction of extensive public health events that would impact dangers on the health of the public across international boundaries and geographical regions. These particular health events in not managed well they have far-reaching effects regarding the health of individuals, for instance, the current case of the COVID-19 outbreak (Masys, Izurieta, & Ortiz, 2020).

Health security as a health concern

The concept of health security has become a global health concern in the recent past. The aspect of exponential population growth, degradation of the environment, antimicrobials misuse, and rapid urbanization has been the subject of the microbial world equilibrium disruption, which has resulted in the emergence of new diseases, for instance, COVID-19. This has been established to be occurring at unprecedented rates resulting in the disruption of the health of the people, consequently resulting in economic and social impacts. In the recent past, chemical dependency has exponentially grown alongside the potential health hazards awareness regarding health and the environment, for instance, climate change and pollution. With the aspect of food globalization production increases, it is characterized by an increased rate in tainted ingredients usage alongside an increased risk with regards to foodborne diseases. With the mobility in the global population being increased alongside increased economic interdependence, it brings about global health threats, which overwhelms the availability of the traditional defense with regards to national borders leading to a situation where protection against disease or vector invasion becomes impossible. The aspect of health emergencies, health systems established as being weak, and pandemics don't only cost lives both instead poses the most significant economic and security risks faced today with regards to health security (Masys, Izurieta, & Ortiz, 2020).

Need for health security assessment

A lot of health challenges, in most cases the infectious diseases, have an extensive recognition as being local and global concerns that are established not to respect borders, for instance, in the prevailing case of COVID-19. As a result, I would include the aspect of health security in my city's foreign policy strategies with regards to diseases that have the probability of threatening and affecting the domestic public health interests. Over the past, health security has been established as having occupied lower echelons with regards to national priorities, but in the recent past, the federal policymakers have had an increased recognition of the harmful effects resulting from health crises as a resulting factor health security has increasingly been elevated with regards to national agendas in situations whereby health security is concerned with national security and foreign policy implications (Bouskill, 2019).

I would review the data of previous health issues, including pandemics, that had an implication on the concept of health security. This will include the identification of the underlying health issues. The data review would establish the basis of characterizing health issues as an element of national priority health security concerns, which might impact changes in my community regarding the understanding of various health threats. Thus, establishing significantly greater emphasis regarding the views of those who are outside the health community, which would probably result in an alteration of the approaches applied in the solving of health security problems. Again, I would make careful consideration with regard to what health issues should be prioritized with regard to the health security aspect in my community (Rushton & Youde, 2014).

Health security target audience

The target audience of my health communication planning model are citizens affected by health issues. Thus, the determination of the health security target audience will be on the basis of all residents of my community. The economic development promotion and political instability promotion has been established as being the core priorities for every community over the past decades. Researches have been able to determine the fact that chronic and acute changes in the health system result in either directly or indirectly security implications, for instance, political unrest, destabilization, economic deterioration in a community, and civil disorder. Hence, the concept of health security has substantially been incorporated into various national policies by different governments globally. Health security will be based on all people in my community because good health is established as a shared common value among all people (Masys, Izurieta, & Ortiz, 2020).
