Household illness and associated water and sanitation factors in peri-urban Lusaka, Zambia, 2016–2017

S. C. Hubbard, M. I. Meltzer, et al.

This cross-sectional study in peri-urban Lusaka, Zambia reveals alarming findings on the burden of household diarrheal and respiratory diseases. The research, conducted by a team of experts including Sydney C. Hubbard and Martin I. Meltzer, highlights critical WASH characteristics linked to increased illness risk. With 75% of stored water contaminated and poor sanitation practices prevalent, there’s a compelling need for enhanced WASH services in densely populated areas.
