Yes, almost all construction is brick and mortar. Much of the concrete work in the south of India is substandard because the roads are so choked with traffic of all kinds--from lorries to oxcarts--the mix often partially cures during transport to the pouring site. Some buildings and even some bridges simply collapse under their own weight because of this. That's one of the reasons I'm more concerned about accidents than disease whie I'm there. I can prepare for disease.
