Bronchiectasis
When you breathe in, the air travels down through your trachea (windpipe). It then goes through two tubes to your lungs. These tubes are your bronchi. Bronchial disorders can make it hard for you to breathe.The most common problem with the bronchi is bronchitis, an inflammation of the tubes. It can be acute or chronic. Other problems includeBronchiectasis - a condition in which damage to the airways causes them to widen and become flabby and scarredExercise-induced bronchospasm - a breathing problem that happens when your airways shrink while you are exercisingBronchiolitis - an inflammation of the small airways that branch off from the bronchiBronchopulmonary dysplasia - a chronic lung condition in infants, most often premature infants

A survey revealed more than 95% of vaccine preventable diseases (VPD) associated adult deaths have been reported in India. Pneumonia accounts for 39% (146/374) and meningitis for 24.3% (91/374) of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD), causing 38,811 confirmed cases and 2,266 deaths in 2017. Insurance Information Bureau of India also stated that “certain infectious and parasitic diseases” was the top insurance claim category in 2016-17. In light of this, it’s clear: Controlling VPDs in adults through timely vaccination is crucial. What’s your take on adult vaccination in India? Should India be doing more to integrate it into routine healthcare and national health programs?
