11. Current evidence

12. Health issues identified by the Prime Ministers National Action Plan on Climate Change in India Provision of enhanced public health care services Assessment of increased burden of disease due to climate change Providing high-resolution weather and climate data to study the regional pattern of diseases Development of a high-resolution health impact mode at the state level GIS mapping of access routes to health facilities in areas prone to climatic extremes

13. Prioritization of geographic areas based on epidemiological data and the extent of vulnerability to adverse impacts of climate change Ecological study of air pollutants and pollen (as the triggers of asthma and respiratory diseases) and how they are affected by climate change Studies on the response of disease vectors to climate change Enhanced provision of primary, secondary and tertiary health care facilities and implementation of public health measures, including vector control, sanitation, and clean drinking water supply.
