Diarrhea, an epidemic

Diarrhea has become an epidemic in Nepal. Many parts of the country has been suffering from this disease from the very beginning. Last year, Jhajharkot was effected while this year Nepalgunj and Dang are the victims. The number of death and patients are increasing day by day. It has been more than three weeks but the number of victims are increasing rather than decreasing. Even Butwal has been affected.

In the time when people are dying of fatal and dangerous diseases, in Nepalese are dying of minor diseases like diarrhea and cholera. The lack of doctors and health workers in these remote places is one of the reason for increase in the disease. Lack of proper medication results such diseases which in turns becomes epidemic.

It is very important to insure and increase the health status of the people. They could contribute to nation if they are healthy and well. So for the development of the country, its important to develop the health status of the citizens.
