EPIDEMICS IN KASHMIR- A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE

Dr. Omair Aziz Wani, Dr. Sajid Farooq Khan

Abstract :

Introduction:-. Kashmir has been home for various outeaks and epidemics for decades and centuries. These diseases were problematic for the people and an issue of seriousness for the State as they inflicted a huge loss to the human resource which in turn would lead to economic loss in the State. Environmental conditions played an important role in the causation and spread of diseases. Though many of the health conditions like Goiter, kangri burns, osteomalacia etc have been endemic in Kashmir but few diseases like small pox and cholera have resulted in devastation and extensive epidemics.
