Key Insights

In spite of the government giving free medication to manage diarrhoeal diseases, every 2 minutes 3 children die. Following are the roadblocks that are preventing adequate efficacy of the current programs.

1

Non-standardised utensils

Every poor household has a different spoon and a glass hence the quantity of water, ORS, etc. differs leading to non-standardised results.

2

Less access to clean water

Solutes require clean drinking water for adequate Oral Rehydration Solution, which is difficult to access in below-poverty-line population.

3

Inadequate storage containers

Absence of secure storage containers for leftover ORS leads to contamination.

4

Inadequate visual communication

Lack of language independent relevant visual communication for best disease management.
