“…transportation incentives were more effective than personalized letters to increase cervical cancer screening rates among low-income women. 22,23 Thirdly, differences in baseline risk can impact on the effectiveness of interventions across populations. For example, penicillin treatment of streptococcal pharyngitis reduces the incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) by 70%.…”

“…40 In view of the public health benefits to accrue, we recommend resolute commitment to the systematic implementation of evidence-based strategies to promote cervical screening as well as a reliable and rigorous research agenda to generate evidence where international studies are of questionable external validity.…”

“…These are dependent on access to the primary care provider system and the policies of insuring or funding agencies. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14] The NPH is new in that it links health promotion with healthcare access; it is an integration of transdisciplinary and multi-organizational work. It is important for all countries, especially those with a weak infrastructure in primary care and those fi nding a new way in the post-Soviet transition.…”

The New Public Health is a contemporary application of a broad range of evidencebased scientifi c, technological, and management systems implementing measures to improve the health of individuals and populations. Its main objectives are the political and practical application of lessons learned from past successes and failures in disease control and the promotion of preventive measures to combat existing, evolving and re-emerging health threats and risks. We address present and anticipated health problems in a complex world with great inequalities with specifi c targets which would help to achieve higher standards of health and a more just and socially responsible distribution of resources.We present some examples of achievements in public health and clinical medicine, particularly from the past half century, that have resulted in improved disease control and increased health and longevity for populations. Many remaining challenges must be overcome in order to reduce the toll of avoidable morbidity and mortality and to achieve improved and equitable health nationally and internationally. The tools at our disposal today are much more effective than they were even just ten years ago. Promoting wider application of these tools and greater awareness of achievements and failures in public health will improve our capacity to affect greater change in population health in the future.The New Public Health is a moving target, as the science and practice of public health grow in strength. It is relevant to all countries, developing, transitional, or industrialized, all facing different combinations of epidemiologic, demographic, economic and health systems challenges. A greater understanding of these issues is vital to both a European and a wider audience of policy makers, educators, students, health systems managers, and practitioners of public health to address these challenges.
