This is the number of new consultations for acute diarrhea divided by the total number of consultations. The very dramatic peak starting about week 31, 1, demonstrates the increase in acute diarrhoea cases from the flood affected areas starting in KP the first week of August 1. The proportional morbidity of diarrhoea in 11 so far follows the seasonal trend of 9 and early 1. However the cholera cases and outbreaks are above the usual number and started earlier than usual this year. Last week nine districts had outbreaks of AWD, nine more were confirmed this week.

Graph at the right, is comparison chart showing that 1 out of 1 reporting districts in KP have more than 1% diarrhea cases out of total consultations at public health facilities. Post Flood peak was at 1% so there is clearly a worse diarrhea situation this year in KP.
