N2  - Throughout human history until the contemporary Russia-Ukraine War, armed conflict between and within nations and groups has profoundly caused ill health and mortality. In a recent issue of the journal, the authors made a unified analysis of the relationship between war and public health and subsequently outlined the role of Public Health Professionals in times of war including 'surveillance and documentation of the health effects of war…and advocating policies and promoting actions to deal with war and its health consequences.'1 This uniquely provides a new approach toward public health discourse and language. Since the WHO's declaration of COVID-19 as a pandemic in March 2020,2 the tone of health-related scholarships largely follows an internal-external prototype (e.g. health crisis effects on education, globalization, environment) and only a minority sample of its opposite, or exploring the influence of varying worldwide phenomena on global public health security. Therefore, public health promotion requires a sense of exigency both on the personal and collective levels by looking into penetrative factors that shape (in)directly our health in general.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
