ARI, ADD and BD were observed to be the mostly reported cases in the district. Typhoid and malaria have shown a gradual decreasing trend over the years. Dengue has shown a cyclical trend with a rise in the number of cases every third year. Regarding AES and JE, annually around 30% of AES cases have been observed to be JE positive.
