Question

I will give brainliest to anyone who can write a paragraph explanation and answer for this question NO JOKE.
Explain the relationship between the lack of access to clean water and waterborne diseases as well as high death and infant mortality rates.

Answer 1

Answer:

Lack of clean water supply, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) are major causes for the spread of waterborne diseases in a community. The fecal–oral route is a disease transmission pathway for waterborne diseases. Poverty also increases the risk of communities to be affected by waterborne diseases.

In 2018, an estimated 882,000 children under five died in India, the highest in the world. With India's large child population, this is despite the fact that the under-five mortality rate (37 per 1,000 live births) was lower than the global average (39) and has fallen from 126 in 1990.
