- Definition "disease, first identified in the Indian district of Burdwan, as a result of an epidemic in the 1860s and 1870s, with symptoms similar to those of kala-azar [ IATE:3538647 ]" Reference "COM-EN, based on:Pati, B, Harrison, M. The social history of health and medicine in colonial India. Taylor & Francis, 2009. http://books.google.com/books?id=negRwteG6ugC&pg=PA97&dq=%22burdwan+fever%22&hl=mt#v=onepage&q=%22burdwan%20fever%22&f=false [23.9.2011]"
- Comment [Leonard] Roger's assertion that the kala-azar epidemic in Assam was an extension of the epidemic fever of North Bengal cannot go unchallenged; nor is it tenable to maintain that the outbreak of Burdwan fever in 1863-74 was a kala-azar epidemic. This will probably remain a matter of controversy until a direct connection between the two is established.
