Most Common Monsoon Diseases: Prevention and Precautions
10.Sep.2020
Monsoon season in India not only provides relief from the scorching heat of summer but also brings the risk of catching various communicable diseases. These monsoon diseases remain undiagnosed until some undesirable consequences occur. This is why it is important to diagnose and treat diseases early during the rainy season, as it can save lives. Developing, resource-limited nations are predicted to face a host of climate-related health consequences including vector-borne and water-borne diseases such as malaria, cholera, and dengue.
Here are some common diseases that are very prevalent in this season that you should be aware of. It is also advisable to understand the preventive measures of these diseases so that you and your family can take the necessary precautions.
