The World Health Organization call to halve global snakebite deaths by 2030 will require substantial progress in India. We analyzed 2833 from 611,483 verbal autopsies the nationally representative Indian Million Death Study 2001 2014, and conducted a systematic literature review 2000 2019 covering 87,590 snakebites. estimate that India had 1.2 million (average 58,000/year) 2019. Nearly half occurred at ages 30–69 years over quarter children < 15 years. Most home rural areas. About 70%...

Snakebite is possibly the most neglected of NTDs (Neglected Tropical Diseases). Half global deaths due to venomous snakebites, estimated at 100,000 per year, occur in India. The only representative data on snakebite available from India mortality RGI-MDS study (Registrar General India- 1 Million Death Study) and another state Bihar. Incidence for 2 districts West Bengal only. Hospital-based admissions use ASV are gross underestimates as victims rural depend more alternate treatment methods...
Background: Direct studies on the extent to which long-term exposure ambient particulate matter (PM) of 2·5 µm diameter causes adult mortality in India are lacking, despite over 99% Indians being exposed levels that World Health Organisation (WHO) considers unsafe.Methods: We conducted a prospective proportional study within Million Death Study (MDS) provide first-ever direct national estimates chronic respiratory disease, heart attack and stroke from (PM2·5) 2001-13. calculated odds ratios...
