Happy Sanitary and Epidemiological Service Worker’s Day of Kazakhstan!

I sincerely congratulate you on your professional holiday — the Sanitary and Epidemiological Service Worker’s Day of Kazakhstan, which this year is officially celebrated for the first time on September 15!

This is the first celebration of the Sanitary and Epidemiological Service Day — a historic event that recognizes the enormous contribution of sanitary and epidemiological specialists to protecting public health and ensuring the sanitary and epidemiological well-being of our country.

Dear colleagues! Chief Sanitary Doctors, employees of the Committee of Sanitary and Epidemiological Control, territorial Departments and Divisions, heads and staff of Anti-Plague Stations, heads and employees of the National Center for Public Health and the M. Aikimbayev National Scientific Center for Especially Dangerous Infections, hospital epidemiologists of healthcare organizations, heads and employees of specialized business entities, and all specialists of the service. For many years, you have been at the forefront, protecting people’s health, ensuring environmental safety, and safeguarding the sanitary well-being of all settlements in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The work of the sanitary and epidemiological service is multifaceted and requires deep knowledge, high responsibility, continuity, and devotion to your mission.

I express special gratitude to the veterans of the service — those who stood at its origins, who laid a solid foundation for today’s model of the service. Thanks to your experience, dedication, and knowledge, the sanitary and epidemiological service was shaped to protect the health of citizens both now and in the future.

To young specialists, I wish to preserve and multiply the glorious traditions of the older generations, to be persistent, proactive, and relevant in addressing new challenges and tasks of global healthcare.

May your energy, competence, and high standards for yourselves and your colleagues continue to contribute to protecting the nation’s health, strengthening sanitary well-being, and developing Kazakhstan’s public health system.

I wish you strong health, well-being, respect in society, and new professional achievements!

Respectfully,
Yerlan Kiyasov
