The Weekly Morbidity and Mortality Report (WMMR) is published by the Ministry of Health of Pakistan (MOH) and the World Health Organization (WHO). The WMMR is built on surveillance data that health service providers and NGOs transmit on a weekly basis from health facilities and hospitals in those areas affected by the earthquake that struck Pakistan on 8 October 2005. The WMMR objectives are to monitor the trend of health conditions over a period of time and provide vital information to all health partners. The WMMR is only a snapshot of the health conditions in those facilities where events are registered and data collected and does not necessarily reflect the situation from other health facilities. The WMMR is a publication that has been developed for emergencies and previously used in other areas such as the Darfur Crisis. The WMMR is produced with the financial support of AAI Australia, Americares, CIDA, Denmark, DFID, ECHO, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Monaco, Norway, SIDA, Slovak Republic, Switzerland, Turkey, USAID The WMMR is published by the World Health Organization (WHO), Health Emergency Operation Centre, National Park Road, Chak Shahzad, Islamabad, Pakistan.

Compared to last week, the DEWS reporting has increased by 2% this week (81% and 83% respectively). The total number of reporting sites in the Earthquake affected districts remains 335 as of week 25, 2008. Table 1, summarizes reporting by each earthquake affected district for the last 4 weeks.

Similar to the prior weeks, the district Muzaffarabad reports the highest proportion (35%) and Neelum reports the lowest proportion (3%) of the total consultation reported from all the earthquake affected districts. Neelum is the smallest district with the least number of DEWS reporting sites among all the districts in the earthquake area. Figure 1 depicts the pattern of weekly reporting units participating in the DEWS and the total number of weekly consultations reported from week 1, 2007 to week 25, 2008. Overall there seems to be a decline in consultations starting from week 49 onwards compared to the previous weekly pattern. This decline in trend could be a result of several reasons which are being investigated. Figure1.

The distribution of consultations by age groups indicate that 19% are children less than 5 years of age, 20% are children 5-14 years of age, 41%, the majority, are adults 15-45 years of age, and 20% are adults above 45 years age. Of the total consultations reported for week 25, 53% were from female patients. The proportion for Upper Respiratory Tract Infection was 15%, Unexplained Fever 9%, Acute Diarrhoea 11%, Lower Respiratory Tract Infection 4% and Scabies 5% in all age groups and both sexes. Out of the total 73,132 reported consultation in all ages and both sexes, 55% (40,529) accounted for health problems other than the diseases reported above. See (Figure 2).

In both adult age groups, 15-45 years and above 45 years, the proportion of the other health problems is higher than reported for children, followed by URTI. The proportion of the remaining reported communicable diseases in adults is lower than reported in children. Figure 4 presents the comparisons of the reported consultation by age groups. Figure4.

    Ethnobotanical Leaflets 10: 63-71. 2006. Check List of Medicinal Plants of Siran Valley Mansehra-Pakistan Ghulam Mujtaba Shah And Mir Ajab Khan* Department of Botany, Govt Post Graduate College, Abbottabad *Department Of Plants Sciences, Quaid-I-Azam University, Islamabad-Pakistan Issued 27 February 2006 ABSTRACT This study was carried in Siran Valley district Mansehra. (Pakistan). The method adopted for documentation of indigenous knowledge was based on questionnaire consisting of semi-structured interviews employing a checklist of questions and direct observations. The aim of the study was to collect indigenous knowledge of local inhabitants about the use of native plants, which were being utilized by the people for the treatment of different diseases. The ethnomedicinal uses of 80 plant species belonging to 49 families were recorded during field trips from the research area. The cultivated medicinal plants consists of 21 species. The check list and ethnomedicinal inventory was developed alphabetically by botanical name, followed by local name, family, part used and ethnomedicinal uses. Plant specimens were collected, identified, preserved, mounted and voucher was deposited in the Department of Plant Sciences, Quaid-I-Azam University, Islamabad for future references. Key words: Medicinal plants, ethnomedicinal uses, Siran Valley-Pakistan. INTRODUCTION The study area is located in the Hazara Civil Division of the North West Frontier Province, (NWFP), Pakistan. Mansehra district was formed on 1st of October 1976. It consists of three tehsils viz. Balakot, Mansehra and Oghi.

  • Seismic Microzoning of Upper Hazara Region: Based on Impact Analysis of Recent Earthquakes
    109 Geol. Bull. Punjab Univ. 43, 2008. SEISMIC MICROZONING OF UPPER HAZARA REGION: BASED ON IMPACT ANALYSIS OF RECENT EARTHQUAKES BY TALAT IQBAL, ZAHID ALI, TARIQ MAHMOOD AND M. QAISAR Mciro Seismic Studies Programme, Ishfaq Ahmed Research Laboratories P. O. Nilore, Islamabad, Pakistan. E-mail: [email protected] AND NASIR AHMAD Institute of Geology, University of the Punjab, Quaid-i-Azam Campus, Lahore-54590 Pakistan ABSTRACT: Microzoning of the strong ground motion hazard for the Upper Hazara region based on expected Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) is carried out through deterministic approach by using the Maximum Credible Earthquakes (MCE) along faults and recent microintensity distribution data of 4 significant local earthquakes. The seismogenic faults are identified and MCE is estimated along each fault through considering its longest rupture segment. The microintensity data of significant earthquakes was used to estimate PGA through empirical relationships and correlated with locally recorded strong motion data. Attenuation relationships between seismogenic fault and distances on hanging and foot walls are developed by utilizing estimated PGA data. Finally, these relationships are applied to each seismogenic fault segment to estimate PGA value at 200m grid by assuming that the geomorphology of the region is same. The compiled seismic microzoning map indicates that most of the part of Balakot city area lies in high PGA value (0.5g) zone. Similarly, some areas of Muzaffarabad, Garhi Habib Ullah, Mansehra and Shinkiari cities are placed in high PGA zones, primarily depending on the closest distance to local seismogenic faults of the region. However, local instrumental strong motion data for different geological conditions is required to obtain more realistic microzoning.
