Each year, especially in summer, Assam’s tea plantations witness numerous incidents of venomous snakebites and snakebite-related deaths. The women tea workers are more vulnerable to venomous snakebites, as they are the ones primarily harvesting tea leaves in the fields, which exposes them to frequent contacts with venomous snakes. To tackle the problem, healthcare providers say, timely access to antivenom, public awareness and development of region-specific, monovalent antivenom to treat bites from species endemic to the region are needed.
