Description
Safeguarding the health of New York City's population: In the 50's, smooth, efficient public health services made it possible for people to live in the five boroughs of New York City without the threat of contagious diseases. Supplying clean water, hygienic food and removing wastes were sanitation and engineering problems of gigantic proportions. A breakdown in any of these services could have meant disaster for millions, especially in the Borough of Manhattan, an island of solid rock 13.5 miles long, 2.3 miles wide, with a population of 1,870,000 to which 350,000 commuters were added by day. The Department of Health of New York City spent over $25,000,000 a year - nearly twice the Regular Budget of the World Health Organization.
