摘要：Human health is affected by many environmental factors ranging from those affecting food and water to those in the air. In this paper, the effect of temperature, relative humidity and rainfall on the spread of typhoid was analyzed using graphical method and data of three years ranging from 2008-2010. The result shows that temperature has a negative correlation with typhoid. On the other hand, rainfall has a positive correlation with typhoid. Finally, relative humidity has a strong positive correlation with typhoid. This clearly justifies the high prevalence of typhoid cases during rainy season than in the dry season.
