Indicator 3.9.2: Mortality rate attributed to unsafe water, unsafe sanitation and lack of hygiene (exposure to unsafe Water, Sanitation and Hygiene for All (WASH) services)

Deaths attributable to unsafe water, sanitation and hygiene focusing on inadequate WASH services, expressed per 100,000 population; The included diseases are diarrhea (GHE code 110 which includes ICD-10 codes A00, A01, A03, A04, A06-A09), acute respiratory infections (GHE code 380 which includes ICD-10 codes H65-H66, J00-J22, P23, and U04), intestinal nematode infections (GHE codes 340, 350 and 360 which include ICD-10 codes B76-B77, and B79) and protein-energy malnutrition (GHE code 550 which includes ICD-10 codes E40-E46).

Mortality rate per 100,000 population = (Number of deaths / population) x 100,000
