- NHS reorganisation - many community physicians retired as posts seen as a “dead end” for poorly qualified physicians.
- Abolition of AHAs and restructed DHAs.
- First report of the Steering Group on Health Services Information - Körner Report.
- United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting established
- Meanwhile, in Australia, Barry J. Marshall and Robin Warren demonstrated that Helicobacter pylori caused peptic disease, and could be cured, in a brave piece of experimentation that deserved a Nobel prize. Which they got, later.
