• Public Health In Austria
  01/06/2007
  In the general hustle and bustle and stress to which we are subjected every day, we all too often lose sight of what is most important - our health. In industrialized societies, the dominant attitude toward health was long primarily reactive. As long as someone was healthy, he or she didn’t worry, but - when illness arrived - powerful medications were called upon to restore health as quickly as possible. Recent times, on the other hand, have seen the rise of a “preventive” approach - and that is a definite step in the right direction.
  The newly revised informational booklet “Public Health in Austria” is a further step in this direction - it is meant to inform readers and encourage them to do something for their own health.
