Data of correlation between mean quantity of insecticide powder measured by the containers used by IRS squads of blocks versus reduction in kala-azar incidence of the blocks (2017 compared to 2016)

This data describes the kala-azar (visceral leishmaniasis) incidences on 2016 and 2017 of 46 sub-districts across 12 districts of Bihar. Mean quantity of insecticide powder measured in these blocks for preparing 7.5 Litres of insecticide suspension is also provided. A correlation of this mean quantity with the reduction of incidence in 2017 (as compared to that of 2016) may be performed.
