Abstract
Air and water borne diseases continue to pose significant global public health challenges, especially in lowand middle-income countries. These diseases are responsible for high morbidity and mortality rates, particularly among vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals. Pathogens like bacteria, viruses, and protozoa are transmitted through contaminated air and water sources, often exacerbated by environmental degradation, climate change, poor sanitation, and inadequate public health infrastructure. This article explores the major diseases caused by air and water transmission, highlights global outbreaks, and evaluates socioeconomic impacts. Additionally, it reviews current prevention strategies and public health interventions, including vaccination programs, improved water sanitation practices, air quality monitoring, and community education initiatives. A multidisciplinary and intersect oral approach is essential to tackle these preventable illnesses and build resilient healthcare systems globally.
