6 extractive question-and-answer pairs built from AFI ADD_MSUs, published by ncdc.mohfw.gov.in. The source is a 1-page publication. Source-evidenced topics include syndromic surveillance, acute febrile illness (afi), acute diarrheal diseases (add), metropolitan surveillance units (msus), integrated disease surveillance programme (idsp), pradhan mantri ayushman bharat health infrastructure mission (pm-abhim), multi-pathogen testing, integrated health information platform (ihip). 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: 2 list, 2 relationship, 1 factual, 1 summary. 5 of the 6 pairs (83.3%) ask explanatory questions; the remaining 1 are factual or table-based questions. 100.00% of rows pass the corpus quality gate.
This dataset contains six extractive question-and-answer pairs focused on syndromic surveillance for Acute Febrile Illness (AFI) and Acute Diarrheal Diseases (ADD) in India. The data highlights the role of Metropolitan Surveillance Units (MSUs) under the Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) and their establishment through the Pradhan Mantri Ayushman Bharat Health Infrastructure Mission (PM-ABHIM). It also explores the benefits of syndromic surveillance initiatives, including early outbreak detection and actionable public health data. The dataset is derived from a single-page publication by ncdc.mohfw.gov.in and includes verbatim answers from the source document.

| What does Acute Febrile Illness (AFI) contribute to in India? | substantial infectious disease-related morbidity and mortality | Syndromic Surveillance for AFI & ADD at selected Metropolitan Surveillance Units (MSUs) Background Acute Febrile Illness (AFI) and Acute Diarrheal Diseases (ADD) represent major public health concerns in India, particularly within densely populated metropolitan areas where high population density accelerates pathogen transmission. AFI contributes to substantial infectious disease-related morbidity and mortality, while ADD accounts for over 50% of outbreaks reported to the Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) annually. To strengthen early threat detection and urban health infrastructure, the Government of India, under the Pradhan Mantri Ayushman Bharat Health Infrastructure Mission (PM-ABHIM), established Metropolitan Surveillance Units (MSUs). | 352 | relationship | 0.970 | https://ncdc.mohfw.gov.in/uploads/pdf/AFI%20ADD_MSUs.pdf | AFI contributes to substantial infectious disease-related morbidity and mortality, while ADD accounts for over 50% of outbreaks reported to the Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) annually. | 1 | page=1,block=0 | 0.700 | valid |
| What role do Metropolitan Surveillance Units (MSUs) play within the IDSP network? | serve as decentralized hubs connecting district and state surveillance units with tertiary hospitals and high-volume urban health facilities | Functioning under the IDSP network, MSUs serve as decentralized hubs connecting district and state surveillance units with tertiary hospitals and high-volume urban health facilities. This project pilots an integrated, lab-based syndromic surveillance framework for AFI and ADD across selected high-burden metropolitan cities. By combining systematic patient enrollment with multi-pathogen testing, the initiative strengthens early outbreak signal detection, informs clinical management, and provides actionable data to guide public health interventions. | 41 | summary | 0.970 | https://ncdc.mohfw.gov.in/uploads/pdf/AFI%20ADD_MSUs.pdf | Functioning under the IDSP network, MSUs serve as decentralized hubs connecting district and state surveillance units with tertiary hospitals and high-volume urban health facilities. | 1 | page=1,block=0 | 0.700 | valid |
