Description

Argentina conducted its first national survey on rural health conditions on 13 August 1937. Survey teams assessed sanitation, access to medical care, and common illnesses in remote communities. Findings revealed disparities between urban and rural public health services. The government used the results to design outreach programs and improve clinic infrastructure. The survey helped shape future national health initiatives. Its completion marked an important step in understanding rural well-being.
