Koop, Charles Everett, 1916-2013

In this address, Koop reviewed recent accomplishments and remaining objectives in the public health fields of disease prevention; alcohol and drug abuse and mental health; primary health care, especially in community health centers; and, in greatest detail, child and maternal health. In addition, he tried to assess how the economic recession of the early 1980s and President Ronald Reagan's proposal to delegate certain federal health programs to the states in the form of block grants would affect services in these four areas of public health.
