Encephalitis has killed 154 in UP in 2012
August 3, 2012 Correspondent

The death toll due to Japanese Encephalitis (JE) in eastern Uttar Pradesh has now reached 154 with three children succumbing to the killer virus on Wednesday night.
...
He said that during the past 24 hours, 15 new patients have been admitted to BRD Medical College in Gorakhpur and the number of JE patients being treated was 73.
...
UP minister for health Ahmad Hasan had given an assurance in the state Assembly, a month ago, that preventive step would be taken to check the spread of Japanese Encephalitis.
“No efforts are made at the district-level to check water-logging since this is mainly a water-borne disease and at the state-level the vaccination drive leaves much to be desired. Year after year, children become victims of this killer virus but the people in the corridors of power are not bothered,” said Dr Radha Mohan Das Agarwal, a BJP MLA and also a renowned pediatrician, who lives in Gorakhpur.
Dr Agarwal said that 154 deaths were those that had been recorded by the hospital. “But there are many more such children who succumb to the disease without being able to get any medical treatment. For every death that is recorded there are at least three more that die unattended,” he said.

Hygienic lifestyle key to curb encephalitis deaths
Shailvee Sharda, TNN | Aug 6, 2012, 03.14AM IST

GORAKHPUR/KUSHINAGAR: In 2011, killer encephalitis claimed 579 lives, most of whom were children. This year, the toll has already touched 154. But half of these children could have been saved had local residents taken steps to check two wrong behaviors: open defecation and consuming water from locally made shallow handpumps called 'khichwa' or 'chapa'.

"Both the things are a part of the disease cycle. To get rid of half the burden of encephalitis, one needs to get rid of the two practices which are a part of the people's life here," said Dr RN Singh, crusader against encephalitis who has already proved his point through his case study, Holiya, a village in Kushinagar. Holiya got rid of 'chapas' besides improving its sanitation and hygiene to save the people from diseases. The results are visible through zero encephalitis case since January 2010.

MANZOOR-UL-HASSAN


Srinagar, Aug 3: The infectious and water-borne diarrheal diseases have seen a sharp rise in Kashmir in the past couple of weeks with life-threatening viral Meningitis showing an ?unusual trend? among children. Public Health experts blame ?contaminated water and unhygienic habits? for the ?outbreak?, mostly in villages.
In the past two months, the Government Medical College?s pediatric department has logged 99 cases of children infected with viral Meningitis spread through feucal contamination in water and other unhygienic conditions.
As per GB Pant hospital authorities, there are more than 20 children provisionally diagnosed with Meningitis in the hospital.

According to officials in the Directorate of Health Services Kashmir, there is a ?rise in Acute Diarrheal Disease-Gastroenritis, Enteric fever and Hepatitis apart from viral Meningitis with several outbreaks in Pulwama, Budgam, Baramulla and Ganderbal.? ?Comparing the data of two years, 2011 and 2012, there have 11 outbreaks last year during three months (April-June) while around 21 outbreaks have been reported in the valley between April and June this year,? they said.
