Does anyone out there knows about the 10 Leading causes of Deaths in Nepal? Just curious!

Here is my list....

1. Maobadi ko banduk, and khukuri
2. Army ko banduk
3. Accident (Mainly bus, and bhir bata ladera)
4. Child Death
5. Cancer
6. TB
7. Suicide (Jhundiyera, Bagera, Fewataal ma dubera, etc all included)
8. landmine
9. Ktm ko dhuwa le
10. natural death

i think, No. 8 will rise to higher position in a few years.

If you were rather official figures, sorry...

WHO might solve your curiosity. Just check that out.

oops, typo again.

pls read "If you were rather official figures, sorry..." as
"If you were looking for rather official figures, sorry..."

eheh galab, Violence first cause hora? i mean.. yu sure?

.
TB, diearrhea(sp?), cholera are the biggest killers
altho it is believed that a large number of cases diagnosed as 'TB' might actually be due to AIDS, but usually theres not enough funds to test for the HIV and so the death is usually attributed to the secondary infection, and with over 50% of the population smokers, TB is huge

What about Violence and all? And Respiratory Diseases, like bronchitis and all? Thanks anyways!

BTW I don't know the real scenario regarding your query about nepal but I would not expect it to be much different from what I have found ...

child death== 9 out of 100 childred die before their fifth birthday in SA, Around half of the deaths occur after the first month and are due to common preventable and treatable conditions, such as diarrhoea, pneumonia, malaria, measles, dengue haemorrhagic fever and malnutrition.

every minute roughly four people die of Tb and 15 develop a new case and one third of these live in ASIA

Two thirds of people in Asia and the Pacific lack access to safe water, including 300 million in China alone
