Flash floods can have severe impacts on human health by causing injuries or fatalities due to drowning, debris, or structural collapses. They can also lead to the spread of waterborne diseases as floodwaters contaminate drinking supplies and create breeding grounds for pathogens and vectors like mosquitoes. Additionally, the psychological stress and trauma from such disasters can result in long-term mental health issues for affected individuals and communities. Furthermore, access to healthcare may be disrupted, exacerbating health problems in the aftermath of the flood.
