Measures taken to improve society's health in the years just after World War II - the Kraków example

Summary/Abstract: World War II brought changes in the health service, which was managed centrally. Medical care was free and available to everyone. But financing health facilities was not a priority, which resulted in a decline in the quality of services provided and corruption. Financial and staff shortages were also felt in Kraków. It was only slightly destroyed during the war, and afterwards the number of its inhabitants increased. Overpopulation brought with it the spectre of epidemic. The most common diseases were scarlet fever, diphtheria and tuberculosis. Widespread action was taken, and the epidemic was prevented. Over time, the number of births increased, and the birth rate began to be positive.
