Ecological assessment of population health indicators in the republic of Karakapakstan and their relationship with the environment

Considering potential threats to national security, special attention should be paid to the problem of ecological safety and environmental protection. We must openly admit that for many years, under the conditions of the old command-administrative system, this problem was not seriously dealt with. In essence, it was the subject of research by individual scientists-enthusiasts, the "cry of the soul" of people who are not indifferent, acutely worried about the future of their country, for the preservation of its natural resources. One of the main factors affecting the health of the population is the provision of drinking water to the population. We studied the dynamics of chemical pollution of water in open water basins in the regions and zones of the Republic of Karakalpakstan.
