The Public Health Law is the most advanced and popular code which comprehensively deals with all the principles and requirements for further developing the public health system of the country and satisfactorily settling the issue of public health.

The vitality of the Public Health Law has been fully displayed despite severe adversities of the history.

Under the wise leadership of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il, the Public Health Law has served as a reliable cornerstone adding brilliance to the socialist system and supporting the development of public health.

Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un has made indefatigable efforts to glorify our public health system, the unique and most superior one in the world and precious property of loving care for the people left by the President and the Chairman who had spared nothing for the people's life and improvement of their health.

The world is now in chaos due to constant fear for damage by malignant virus infection disease, but no infection has been confirmed in our country. This is entirely attributable to the wise leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea that regards the protection and improvement of people's life and health as the most important state affair, and to the socialist public health system of our country which is the most advantageous in the world.

Invariable will be the unshakable will of our Party that puts forward the work of bolstering up the public health sector as a political issue to defend and add luster to the image of socialism of our style and as a crucial undertaking to which the state must direct primary efforts whatever the conditions and situations.
