Why we need change?
• Health and Economic cost.
-$53.8 billion ( 6.4% GDP)/Year. World Bank (2006)
Hurricane Katrina $ 20,billion.(Worse in US history)
Hilton world wide 3500 hotels = $20 billion
State income Andhra pradesh,2006-7= $54.5 billion
State income Tamil Nadu,2006-7= $53.7 billion
State income Gujrat,2006-2007= $ 48.3 billion
-India spends 3.4% GDP on health care.
-91.4% of health care cost is paid privately.
- Majority of sickness in India are aftermath of poor
sanitation. Their eradication will save big money to
families.
Diseases and Cost
WHAT IS BEING DONE
• Total Sanitation campaign, Ministry of
Rural Dev., India.: Effective.
• National Urban Sanitation policy, Ministry
of Urban Dev., India.: Not as effective.

CONVENTIONAL STRATEGY

vaccination, water filter, Odomos, mouse trap, Mosquito nets,
controlling salt and fat in diet, Physicals, Mammogram etc.

osteoporosis, Tuberculosis exposure ,tummy worms,
• TERTIARY PREVENTION: Preventing further complications of
disease. Like prevent repeated heart attack, stroke, tuberculosis,
diarrhea, cholera, malaria
