Conclusion
The disease burden and risk factor estimates for every state of India from 1990 to 2016 in this report are the most
comprehensive description of disease epidemiology attempted so far in a single standardised framework for every
part of the country. These included all available data and inputs from a large network of highly skilled collaborators.
This knowledge base can be a crucial aid for more informed policy and interventions to improve population health in
every state and union territory of India and in reducing health inequalities between the states. These findings and the
ongoing work of the India State-level Disease Burden Initiative could provide important inputs for the data-driven and
decentralised health planning and monitoring recommended by the National Health Policy 2017 and the NITI Aayog
Action Agenda 2017?2020.

Meanwhile, a number of diseases have high fatality rates compared to the number of cases according to the National Health Profile. Rabies, as previously reported by Health Issues India, incurred a fatality rate of 100 percent in India. Other diseases had high mortality rates, such as Japanese encephalitis (eleven percent); acute encephalitis syndrome (six percent); encephalitis (five percent); meningococcal meningitis (four percent); neonatal tetanus (four percent); diphtheria (two percent); viral meningitis (one percent); cholera (one percent); and non-neonatal tetanus (one percent).
The National Health Profile goes into significant detail on India’s communicable disease burden. In 2018, India reported 13,194,775 cases of acute diarrhoeal disease; 11,382 cases of acute encephalitis syndrome, 10,045 cases of encephalitis, and 1,674 cases of Japanese encephalitis; 41,996,260 cases of acute respiratory infection; 57,813 cases of chikungunya; 651 cases of cholera; 101,192 cases of dengue fever; 11,720 cases of diphtheria; 55,470 cases of gonococcal infection; 4,380 cases of kala-azar; 20,895 cases of measles; 3,382 cases of meningococcal meningitis and and 13,110 cases of viral meningitis; 181 cases of neonatal tetanus and 9,104 cases of non-neonatal tetanus; 18,006 cases of pertussis (whooping cough); 928,485 cases of pneumonia; 110 cases of rabies; 15,595 cases of syphilis; 2,308,537 cases of typhoid; and 143,974 cases of viral hepatitis.
