Trabalhando em saúde pública pelo interior do Brasil: lembran?as de uma gera??o de sanitaristas (1930-1970)

摘要

In this work we introduce some small pieces of interviews made with physicians who had acted in diverse Brazilian institutions of public health, mainly in the period between 1930-1970. In these interviews we can find the descriptions of different forms of control and combat of a number of illnesses, the organizational formats of the existing institutions, and the conceptions that guided those professionals. The stories highlight in particular the presence of those professionals in different regions of the country.
