Takeaway: This interactive bar chart compares the percentage of households reporting diarrhea between improved and unimproved drinking water source groups. Households using unimproved drinking water sources had a higher percentage of reported diarrhea than households using improved drinking water sources.
Takeaway: This interactive chart shows the percentage of households reporting diarrhea across water collection time groups. It allows users to compare whether households with longer water collection times had higher reported diarrhea percentages.
This Dataset comes from Emory University RSPH Spring 2026 EPI 598C
Capstone course. This dashboard uses a household-level dataset examining
drinking water source, water collection time, and reported
diarrhea.
The analytic sample includes 977 households after data cleaning.
The main outcome is reported diarrhea, and the main exposure is drinking
water source type.
Water collection time was grouped into four categories: water available
on premise, less than 1 hour, 1–2 hours, and more than 2 hours.
This dashboard explores how reported diarrhea differs by drinking water
source type and water collection time.
Understanding the relationship between drinking water access and reported diarrhea can help identify households at higher risk of water-related illness. These findings can support public health planning and interventions focused on improving safe drinking water access.
