Justin Im et al.

Summary: The study found that good household water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) practices were associated with lower typhoid risk.

Incidence of Enteric Fever in a Pediatric Cohort in North India: Comparison with Estimates from 20 Years Earlier

Bireshwar Sinha et al.

Summary: The study aimed to estimate the incidence of culture-confirmed enteric fever among children aged 6 months to 15 years in Delhi. Despite a 35% reduction in incidence compared to 20 years ago, the study still found a substantial burden of the disease in the population. Continued efforts to improve water, sanitation, and hygiene along with novel vaccination strategies are needed to achieve disease elimination.
