Anotações e citações/ texto breve:
A street-smart, hardworking political leader can bring in phenomenal changes in public health scenario provided he has a strong will to serve the society. Atin Ghosh, Hon'ble member of the mayor-in-council [health] of Kolkata Municipal Corporation, West Bengal, India, has set a clinching paradigm. “The Public Figure behind Public Health” by Dr. Debashis Biswas enrolls some of the resounding activities and achievements of Atin Ghosh during 2010-2015. He has revolutionised vector control activities for prevention and control of malaria and dengue in the city of Kolkata. Under his stewardship, a new era of public health activities, including research on mosquitoes, has ushered in. Contemporary political leaders around the world, who are genetically indisposed to lay stress on public health activities, may learn a big lesson from this leader of Kolkata.
