Therefore, every year the World Health Day is dedicated to any healthcare issue with different slogans, focusing the public attention to the global health trends and a separate problem.

This is a chance to once more appreciate doctors and nurses who are fighting for preserving our population’s health every day, sometimes at the expense of their health.

On behalf of all of us we express our gratitude to our medics who are fulfilling their professional duty these days. Stay firm and be healthy!” the ministry’s statement said.
