Abstract

Providing public sanitary and epidemiological welfare while preparing and holding public events with international participation is one of the prime tasks in ensuring state security. When large numbers of participants, officials and guests from different countries of the world arrive for public events, these conditions are always associated with increased epidemiological risks because of increased load on sanitary infrastructure of public event places and transient increase in population density in a limited area. Preparation and holding of public events are held at regional and international levels and requires the coordination of different sides and agencies of the host country, as well as interaction with other countries and international organizations. The system of measures on ensuring sanitary and epidemiological welfare of the population on the territory of our country includes the system of epidemiological surveillance and control (monitoring and analysis), safety environment monitoring, measures for sanitary-epidemiological emergency localization and containment. The problem of providing population sanitary and epidemiological welfare is divided into the following scientific areas: territorial sanitary surveillance, epidemiological surveillance of natural foci of zoonotic and other infectious diseases; sanitary-epidemiological emergency prevention and containment, arising both independently and because of natural and anthropogenic disasters. The XXVII Summer Universiade (2013, Kazan), XXII Olympic Winter Games and XI Paralympic Winter Games (2014, Sochi) highlighted the readiness of the services responsible for providing public sanitary and epidemiological welfare for conducting major sporting events. Further studying of international experience of holding international public events, its summarizing seems an important task for developing scientific rationale and better management for providing public sanitary and epidemiological welfare.
