12 extractive question-and-answer pairs built from 1769332707 File616, published by ncdc.mohfw.gov.in. The source is a 3-page publication. Source-evidenced topics include nicd cooler, dengue, chikungunya, vector borne diseases, aedes aegypti mosquitoes, desert coolers, mosquito breeding, water tank. Every answer is a verbatim span of text the source prints, and each row carries the passage it sits in, its offset in that passage, the source quote, the page and the location in the document, so any row can be checked against the original. Question types in the export: 5 factual, 3 list, 2 relationship, 1 comparison, 1 summary. 7 of the 12 pairs (58.3%) ask explanatory questions; the remaining 5 are factual or table-based questions. 100.00% of rows pass the corpus quality gate.
This dataset contains 12 extractive question-and-answer pairs derived from a publication by ncdc.mohfw.gov.in. It focuses on the NICD cooler, a patented desert cooler designed to prevent mosquito breeding and reduce the risk of vector-borne diseases like dengue and chikungunya. The dataset highlights the advantages of the NICD cooler over conventional coolers, such as its covered water tank and lack of need for chemical larvicides. It also includes information about agencies registered to manufacture and market the cooler, as well as the year of its design.

| What is one benefit of the NICD cooler related to standing water? | Even standing water in the cooler, when not in use, has no risk of mosquito breeding | There is thus no risk of disease transmission due to coolers. 2. No weekly cleaning of the water tank is required. 3. No chemical larvicide is required to kill mosquito larvae. 4. It can be conveniently installed in high rise buildings. 5. Even standing water in the cooler, when not in use, has no risk of mosquito breeding. The NICD cooler is a patented item and registered with National Research Development Corporation (A DSIR enterprise, Ministry of Science and Technology) and is being manufactured and marketed by the following agencies: | 240 | relationship | 0.970 | https://ncdc.mohfw.gov.in/uploads/resource/1769332707_File616.pdf | 5.

| Why does standing water in conventional coolers during monsoon season increase the risk of disease transmission? | has high potential for the breeding of dengue vector mosquito | The water tank of the conventional coolers is open type, which attracts mosquitoes for egg laying which results in prolific breeding of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and transmit dengue/chikungunya viruses. 2. Weekly larviciding or cleaning is required to prevent breeding of mosquitoes inside the cooler, which is often not practiced. 3. Standing water in the cooler, when not in use, particularly during monsoon season, has high potential for the breeding of dengue vector mosquito and thus increases the risk of disease transmission. In order to overcome the above problems, a mosquito proof desert cooler (NICD Cooler) has been designed in 2009 (The photograph of the same is at Fig. 1). The NICD cooler has the following advantages over the conventional desert coolers: 1. Water tank of the NICD cooler is completely covered to prevent the entry of mosquitoes in to the water tank for egg laying. | 417 | relationship | 0.970 | https://ncdc.mohfw.gov.in/uploads/resource/1769332707_File616.pdf | Standing water in the cooler, when not in use, particularly during monsoon season, has high potential for the breeding of dengue vector mosquito and thus increases the risk of disease transmission. | ||||
