loginA central and historic responsibility for the World Health Organization (WHO) has been the
management of the global regime for the control of the international spread of disease. Under Articles
21(a) and 22, the Constitution of WHO confers upon the World Health Assembly the authority to
adopt regulations “designed to prevent the international spread of disease” which, after adoption by
the Health Assembly, enter into force for all WHO Member States that do not affirmatively opt out of
them within a specified time period.
