This is the fifth study published by researchers who are part of the Scientific Committee of Núcleo Ciência Pela Infância. The study assesses the relationships between the public health system in Brazil, the population’s level of health, and, more specifically, the impacts of the Family Health Strategy (Estratégia Saúde da Família, ESF) on infant mortality. The results of the research prove the positive impact of the ESF cumulatively over the years.
