prevalence of waterborne diseases in patients from municipal Basic Units of Laranjal do Jari /

Surveillance Secretariat. The number of reported cases in the years 2016 to 2019 was
analyzed. After compilation, the data were transferred to Excel spreadsheets and analyzed.
The main waterborne diseases in Laranjal do Jari-AP between the years 2016 to 2019 were
typhoid fever and acute diarrheal disease. A high prevalence of DDA was observed mainly in
children. It is noteworthy that the diseases transmitted by water, caused by the lack of basic
