The public health sector has established data base by grasping the details of the clinical experiences, secret methods, effects and side effects of medicines, days of convalescence and treatment methods and is making correct tactics for treatment on its basis. It is also making and issuing a standardized manual for treatment which described in detail the selection and use of medicines according to the diseases of the patients, and proposals for nursing them.
