A massive earthquake on the scale of the one that struck Turkey in 2023 would have catastrophic consequences for the cities of the United States. The loss of life, damage to buildings and infrastructure, and displacement of millions of people would be devastating. The recovery efforts would be long and difficult, and the emotional and psychological toll on survivors would be significant. This highlights the importance of earthquake preparedness, building codes, and public education on earthquake safety measures. While we cannot prevent earthquakes from occurring, we can take steps to minimize their impact and protect ourselves and our communities.
