The Law of Measures to Confront Epidemics and Health Pandemics authorized the Prime Minister, following the approval of the Council of Ministers, in the event of an outbreak of epidemics or health pandemics, to issue a decision to take any of the necessary measures to confront these dangers in a manner that preserves public health and safety.
