August 5 is celebrated in Brazil the National Health Day. The date aims to raise awareness among the population about the importance of health care and the conservation of healthy habits and health education, in addition to honoring the various professionals in the area.

August 5 also marks the birth of Dr. Oswaldo Cruz, a sanitarist who was one of the main responsible for fighting epidemics in Brazil at the beginning of the 20th century. His work was fundamental in the development of vaccines and in combating diseases such as smallpox, yellow fever and even bubonic plague.

Great steps to the future: Dr. Oswaldo Cruz’s work and the institution of The National Health Day in Brazil have been major steps in the past for the medicine we know today. With the coronavirus pandemic, the legacy of Dr. Oswaldo Cruz’s knowledge and the appreciation of health professionals are fundamental to coping with this disease.
