What is the main idea of the news item?
More than a million young children die each year from diarrhea, even though there’s no secret about how to prevent or treat it. Now, public health experts report that the vast majority of those deaths could be prevented using currently available strategies.
The microbes that cause diarrheal disease spread through contaminated food and water, or through poor hygiene and sanitation.
Interventions from water and sewage systems to antibiotics and oral rehydration therapy have brought the death toll down from about 4. 5 million children a year in the early 1980s to about 1.3 million now. But further reductions have proved challenging, says Ingrid Friberg of the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health.
Friberg is a co-author of a new report based on computer software that projects the impact of increased use of various interventions.
The software, called the Lives Saved Tool (LiST) projects the impact of each anti-diarrhea intervention on a country-by-country basis. Some of the simplest and cheapest ones can be extremely effective. Oral rehydration therapy costs just pennies, while others, like rotavirus vaccine, or building clean water systems, do cost more.
Friberg says she and her co-authors hope the new report will be used in a variety of ways. For example, it might help persuade donors to ramp up funding for anti-diarrhea programs.
