Arsenic contamination in ground water is a serious and widespread global public health problem. It is estimated that more than 300 millions of population worldwide while about 180 million people in the Ganga–Meghna–Brahmaputra plains are exposed to arsenic poisoning. Out of 38 districts of Bihar, 18 are highly affected with ground water arsenic poisoning. A flood plain village of river Ganga Gyaspur Mahaji in Patna district was undertaken in the present study. The study deals with the survey of the entire village households with ground water arsenic quantification with special attention to know the health status of the arsenic-exposed population. The study revealed high arsenic concentration in the ground water of the village. The general health status of the village population was very poor as the subjects were exhibiting typical arsenicosis symptoms. Apart from this, they also had gastrointestinal problems, constipation, anaemia, loss of appetite, breathlessness, mental disability, etc. There were also reports of two cancer incidences from the village: one subject with squamous cell carcinoma of skin and the other with medullary breast cancer along with arsenicosis symptoms. The village population are getting infected and hence are at very high risk and may be impacted if they continue to drink arsenic-contaminated water in the future. Therefore, a proper strategy is urgently required for arsenic mitigation in this arsenic-exposed village through supply of safe drinking water.

比哈尔邦比哈尔邦Gyaspur Mahaji村的人的血液样本中高砷浓度饮用被砷污染的水

地下水中的砷污染是一个严重且普遍的全球公共卫生问题。据估计,全球超过3亿人口,而在恒河-梅格纳-布拉马普特拉平原上约有1.8亿人口暴露于砷中毒。在比哈尔邦的38个地区中,有18个地区受到地下水砷中毒的严重影响。在本研究中,在巴特那区的恒河Gyaspur Mahaji河泛滥平原村进行了研究。该研究通过对地下水中砷的定量分析对整个农村家庭进行调查,并特别注意了解砷暴露人群的健康状况。该研究表明该村庄地下水中砷的浓度很高。由于受试者表现出典型的砷中毒症状,村庄人口的总体健康状况非常差。除此之外,他们还患有胃肠道问题,便秘,贫血,食欲不振,呼吸困难,精神残疾等。该村也有两次癌症发病的报告:一个是皮肤鳞状细胞癌,另一个是髓质。乳腺癌以及砷中毒症状。该村庄的人口正受到感染,因此处于非常高的风险中,如果他们将来继续饮用受砷污染的水,可能会受到影响。因此,在这个暴露于砷的村庄,通过提供安全的饮用水,迫切需要采取适当的措施来减轻砷的危害。食欲不振,呼吸困难,智力障碍等。该村也有两次癌症发病的报道:一个患有皮肤鳞状细胞癌,另一个患有髓样乳腺癌并伴有砷中毒症状。该村庄的人口正受到感染,因此处于非常高的风险中,如果他们将来继续饮用受砷污染的水,可能会受到影响。因此,在这个暴露于砷的村庄,通过提供安全的饮用水,迫切需要采取适当的措施来减轻砷的危害。食欲不振,呼吸困难,智力障碍等。该村也有两次癌症发病的报道:一个患有皮肤鳞状细胞癌,另一个患有髓样乳腺癌并伴有砷中毒症状。该村庄的人口正受到感染,因此处于非常高的风险中,如果他们将来继续饮用受砷污染的水,可能会受到影响。因此,在这个暴露于砷的村庄,通过提供安全的饮用水,迫切需要采取适当的措施来减轻砷的危害。该村庄的人口正受到感染,因此处于非常高的风险中,如果他们将来继续饮用受砷污染的水,可能会受到影响。因此,在这个暴露于砷的村庄,通过提供安全的饮用水,迫切需要采取适当的措施来减轻砷的危害。该村庄的人口正受到感染,因此处于非常高的风险中,如果他们将来继续饮用受砷污染的水,可能会受到影响。因此,在这个暴露于砷的村庄,通过提供安全的饮用水,迫切需要采取适当的措施来减轻砷的危害。
