Abstract

The protection of citizens' personal rights during sudden public health crises involves the framework of international law, the roles and measures of international organizations, and the role of international human rights mechanisms. In the framework of international law, the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights and international human rights law affirm the fundamental rights of everyone, including survival, freedom, personal safety, and medical services. International organizations play an important role in public health crises, such as the World Health Organization (WHO) developing guidelines, providing technical support, and establishing early warning systems. In the event of a sudden public health crisis, the international community has taken various measures to protect citizens' personal rights, such as strengthening the healthcare system, providing emergency assistance, and promoting information sharing. International human rights mechanisms play a crucial role in safeguarding citizens' personal rights by monitoring their obligations, providing protection and relief, and promoting cooperation. In summary, the international protection mechanism for citizens' personal rights under sudden public health crises involves multiple aspects of work and cooperation, aimed at protecting and promoting people's rights and security.
