Overcrowding and health.

R K Bansal1, D M Saxena.   

Abstract

The present study correlates the disease profile of 2536 persons belonging to 542 families with the available per capita floor area (PCFA). It was observed that 91.9 percent individuals were living in overcrowded conditions. As the PCFA decreased, the communicable diseases, infective and parasitic diseases and respiratory disease episodes exhibited a significant increase.
