The origin of World Health Day
On July 22, 1946, the United Nations Economic and Social Council held an International Health Conference in New York. Representatives from more than 60 countries signed the "World Health Organization" **", "World Health Organization ***" came into effect on April 7, 1948. To commemorate the adoption of the first World Health Organization, in June 1948, the World Health Organization was formally established at the First World Health Assembly of the United Nations in Geneva, and decided to designate July 22 each year as "World Health Day". Countries hold various commemorative activities. The following year, the Second World Health Assembly, considering that schools in most countries were on summer vacation in July every year and were unable to participate in this celebration, designated April 7 as the global "World Health Day" from 1950 onwards. . Since 1950, the World Health Organization has selected a theme for World Health Day every year to highlight the key areas of concern to the World Health Organization.
World Health Day is a global opportunity to focus on major public health issues affecting the international community. World Health Day launches a longer-term publicity plan that will last until after April 7.
