Jaundice Outbreak in Odisha Due to River Contamination

In a place called Nua Dokanda in Odisha, India, more than 10 people have gotten sick with jaundice.

Jaundice is when your skin and eyes turn yellow because your liver isn't working right.

Doctors think the sickness came from dirty water in a river called the Daya River.

The health officials are checking the water and telling people not to use it.

They are also treating the people who are sick.

Jaundice can make you feel tired, give you a fever, and make your pee dark.

To stay safe, people should drink clean water, wash their hands, and eat healthy foods.
