Today marks an important day in the history of the United States Public Health Service (USPHS) Commissioned Corps. On July 16, 1798, President John Adams signed the “Act for the Relief of Sick and Disabled Seamen,” creating the U.S. Marine Hospital Service to protect against the spread of disease from sailors returning from overseas ports and thus began the story of the Public Health Service. Let's honor the legacy of the U.S. Public Health Service and the unwavering commitment to promoting health equity and well-being for all. #USPHS #PublicHealth #HealthHeroes #USPHS226
