Man Against Disease: with Help from “WHO” and “UNICEF”, India Tackles Malaria
Caption Description
In 1946, India (population then 400,000,000) had a death-toll of 1,000,425 from malaria. In 1949, four malaria control demonstration projects were launched by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) in Mysore, Orissa, Madras and Terai. In one season, DDT spraying had changed the picture. Bombay State, for example, had a 70 percent spleen-rate in one infected area; rate dropped suddenly to 7 percent. In Terai, two-thirds of all infants had malaria traces in the blood; after one year, infection rate dropped to 40 percent, next year slumped to zero. UNICEF’s offer to aid India in fighting malaria involves helping establish DDT plant in Bombay. Interim target consumption of DDT stands at 500 tons per year - plus 400 tons contributed by UNICEF which will protect further 8,000,000 annually.
Here, Brahmin Health Visitor, Mrs. Pande, makes control test in native village. Service is complementary to DDT spraying, major control measure. [No exact date or location]
