Travails of demystifying a mysterious disease in India.

چکیده
The most apt reply to this query is because the peripheral public health delivery system in India is in shambles and almost non-existent in some states such as U.P. and Bihar. It does not have enough expertise nor infrastructure to either investigate or control any ongoing epidemic. The expected ‘knee-jerk’ response of the health administration is to rebuff any attempt to highlight emergence of any known or unknown illness and to suppress any information provided to them. Probably, they are not provided with enough guidelines or directives from higher ups on how to deal with these situations. There is an urgent need to conduct workshops and reorientation courses for health officials to impart a correct knowledge of how to investigate, when to investigate, what to investigate and whom to approach for assistance in case of emergence of a new disease or outbreak of a known disease.
