Diseases associated with Floods and Drought increased the occurrence of diarrhoeal diseases diseases transmitted by mosquitoes (among these, dengue and Chikengunya) agricultural pests (Leptospirosis) sand flies (Leishmanisis).

Health impacts of climate change Increased accidents due to Lightning and Tornadoes Increased road traffic accidents Psychological problems Loss of income loss or displaced families

Leading Causes of Hospitalization, 2006 SL Rank OrderCauses of Hospitalization 1 Traumatic injuries 2Diseases of the respiratory system, 3 Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings 4 Viral diseases 5 Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract 6&7 Direct and indirect obstetric causes 8 Diseases of the urinary system 9 Intestinal infectious diseases 10Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue

Control of dengue haemorrhagic fever, Japanese encephalitis and rubella 5.Planning, monitoring and evaluation of the new, emerging and re- emerging iseases (NERD) dengueJapanese encephalitis rubellanew, emerging and re- emerging iseases (NERD) Establishment of epidemic preparedness, rapid response teams at central and divisional levels

The Way Forward Need of research on climate change related health issues Improve health surveillance systems to allow assessment of the impact of climate variability and change on health. To facilitate better integration of data sets across sectors. Review and redistribute the existing roles and responsibilities of the community health worker the PHM and PHI in Sri Lanka.
