The purpose – to explore the impact of landfills on the incidence and the prevalence of diseases across rural populations.
Materials and methods. The study was carried out in the rural Mizhhirsky district of the Transcarpathian region, on the territory of which there is a certified waste landfill of the village Tishne and 64 unauthorized landfills. A visual inspection of the certified landfill of the village Tishne was conducted and the chemical composition of its soils was explored. In order to determine the impact of landfills on the health of the population of the district using statistical data, a comparison between the indicators of the incidence and the prevalence of disease across the rural populations of the Mizhhirsky region and the Transcarpathian region in the main categories of diseases for the period 2015–2017 was made.
Results and their discussion. In the course of the study it was found that the presence of negatively affects the disease prevalence rate across the rural population and the prevalence of disease rate in certain categories of illnesses. Thus, the presence of landfills contributes to an increase in the level of disease incidence in the following categories: nervous system, some infectious and parasitic diseases, endocrine system, nutritional and metabolic disorders, injuries, poisoning and some other effects of external factors, blood and hematopoietic organs diseases and individual disorders involving immune mechanism. Also, the presence of landfill sites negatively affects the prevalence of diseases in the following categories: nervous system, blood diseases and hematopoietic organs and certain disorders involving immune mechanism, injuries, poisoning and some other effects of external factors, the diseases of genitourinary system and some infectious and parasitic diseases.
