Your lead article-‘Mumbai -In need of a Renaissance’, makes an interesting read. While tracing the evolution of healthcare sector since the British era, the article clearly identifies the issues and challenges facing the contemporary healthcare sector and offers possible solutions. With the public health sector lagging behind, it would have been a good idea to take stock of public health activities and initiatives by Municipal Corporation in the areas like vector control, provision of immunisation and contraception to urban slum dwellers. Its the focus on public health that shall make this renaissance a reality.
