Santé Canada. Le Programme de quarantaine et de santé des migrants (PQSM) applique la Loi et le Règlement sur la quarantaine du Canada et le Règlement sanitaire international de l'Organisation mondiale de la Santé. Il contribue à protéger les Canadiens contre des maladies dangereuses et infectieuses qui pourraient menacer la santé publique si elles étaient introduites au pays par le biais de déplacements internationaux de personnes, d'échanges commerciaux avec l'étranger et de véhicules de transport (avions, trains, autobus, automobiles, navires, bateaux, etc.). Afin de sauvegarder la santé des Canadiens, le PQSM coordonne les interventions du Canada lors de flambées de maladies internationales. Il peut mettre en œuvre des plans de secours et d'autres mesures d'urgence élaborés avec des partenaires des secteurs public et privé. 1, record 1, French, - Programme%20de%20quarantaine%20et%20de%20sant%C3%A9%20des%20migrants
