Re: NVBDCP Annual Report
The National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP) is a programme for prevention and control of vector borne diseases viz. Malaria, Japanese Encephalitis (JE), Dengue, Chikungunya, Kala-azar and Lymphatic Filariasis. Out of these six diseases, two diseases namely Kala-azar and Lymphatic Filariasis have been targeted for elimination by 2015. The States are responsible for implementation of programme, whereas the Directorate of NVBDCP, Delhi provides technical assistance, policies and assistance to the States in the form of cash & commodity, as per approved pattern. Malaria, Filaria, Japanese Encephalitis, Dengue and Chikungunya are transmitted by mosquitoes whereas Kala-azar is transmitted by sand-flies. The spread of vector borne diseases depends on occurrence of infective vectors and human vector contact, which is added subjective by various factors such as climate, sleeping habits of human, density and biting of vectors etc. The general strategy for prevention and control of vector borne diseases under NVBDCP is: (i) Integrated Vector Management including Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) in selected high risk areas, Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs), use of larvivorous fish, anti-larval measures in urban areas including bio-larvicides and minor environmental engineering including source reduction (ii) Disease Management including early case detection with active, passive and sentinel surveillance and complete effective treatment, strengthening of referral services, epidemic preparedness and rapid response. (iii) Supportive Interventions including Behaviour Change Communication (BCC), Inter sectoral Convergence, Human Resource Development through capacity building. (iv) Vaccination only against J.E. (v) Annual Mass Drugs Administration (only against Lymphatic Filariasis) NVBDCP Annual Report 2014- 15 |
