In the Oromiya and Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peopleâs regions of Ethiopia, there is limited access to drinking water and basic sanitation.Contaminated water leads to death and disease, and harvests are entirely dependent on rainfall, which is why they are insufficient.ue to this situation, hundreds of people fall ill and die daily as a result of drinking contaminated water, and little food is produced since the harvests are entirely dependent on rainfall and livestock die from diseases related to poor water quality.
Speaking roughly, normal levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) are in the range of 0.4 to 4.0 mIU/L. However, each laboratory and test manufacturer identifies its own normal TSH range.This is based on the test, the equipment being used, and the patients being tested.The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists has proposed a range of 0.3 to 3.0 for normal TSH levels.owever, each laboratory and test manufacturer identifies its own normal TSH range.

Normal and Abnormal Test Results. Although various professional health bodies have specified the normal range for TSH to be 0.4 - 4.5 mIU/L in the past, new regulations recognize that this range is too wide. Currently, the standard reference range for TSH is 0.4 - 3.0 mIU/L. However, clinical data show that 95% of euthyroid patients fall in the range 0.4 - 2.5 mIU/L. In addition, adults with TSH levels over 2.0 mIU/L are likely to develop hypothyroidism later in life. Therefore, the ideal range of TSH is 0.4 - 2.0 mIU/L. Children, generally, have higher TSH levels than adult. The National Academy of Clinical Biochemistry recommends 1.3 - 19 mUI/L for newborns. These values drop with age and by the first year, TSH level for an infant should be between 0.4 mIU/L and 7 mIU/L.
