52. Public health priorities for India
⢠Indian states are in different phases of
epidemiological transition.
⢠However, the public health priorities across
the country remain similar.
⢠Only 21% of all registered deaths in India had
a medically certified cause of death available
in 2019.
⢠Addressing this gap in data is among the most
urgent public health priority for the country.
53. ⢠We are facing the problem of communicable as
well as non communicable diseases.
⢠The continuing burden of malnutrition in India
highlights the need for coordinated and
intersectoral action between the relevant
ministries to address this complex and
persistent health challenge.
⢠The neglect of injuries, despite their substantial
burden.
