RESOLUTION

CD15.R43

PROGRAMS FOR THE ERADICATION OF COMMUNICABLE

DISEASES

THE 15th DIRECTING COUNCIL,

Considering that programs for the eradication of communicable diseases which are implemented

through special campaigns are exposed to serious risks of failure as they enter the phases of

consolidation and vigilance, owing to the lack of health infrastructure capable of maintaining their

activities; and bearing in mind that it is precisely these communicable diseases that are the main

causes of infant mortality in rural areas, which contain over 50 per cent of the population of Latin

America,

RESOLVES

1. To instruct the Director of the Pan American Sanitary Bureau to request the UNICEF to include

among its programs those designed to provide a health infrastructure in rural areas.

2. To request the Director to encourage and advise the Governments in the organization of this type

of service.
