What makes you say so?

Without search and rescue, long term responses would not be able to take place as, provision of health care is  not possible without injured people. And people who lost their families may be due to the fact that there was no search and rescue to find the survivors if any.

For example, the rescue and search is to search for people who are trapped under collapsed buildings. With the help of these rescuers, these victims will be freed and they can be treated immediately. If they are not found, they may be dehydrated and starve hence may pass on before being found. Hence, I personally feel that short-term responses are more effective]]> 2019-04-23 04:00:57 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_goh_shao_wei/responsestoeq/wish/353239373 https://padlet.com/nicholas_goh_shao_wei/responsestoeq/wish/353239409 Rebuilding of infrastructure helps the building have a higher safety level than before,making the building less likely to fall during subsequent earthquakes]]> 2019-04-23 04:01:15 UTC https://padlet.com/nicholas_goh_shao_wei/responsestoeq/wish/353239409 https://padlet.com/nicholas_goh_shao_wei/responsestoeq/wish/353239741 i think short term responses is more efficient.
