One woman died of Nipah virus in Rajshahi Medical College Hospital (RMCH) Wednesday afternoon.
The deceased, Farida Yasmeen, 25, was admitted to the neuro medicine ward of RMCH with common symptoms like fever and seizures.
Complications escalated after she was diagnosed with Nipah virus on Wednesday morning and was eventually referred to Nipah ICU. She died around 5pm while undergoing treatment.
Besides, her mother-in-law Rahima Begum is admitted in the Nipah Suspect Ward with the same symptoms. Farida's father-in-law Abdul Haque had died at home with the same symptoms two weeks ago.
Although the family thinks it was a natural death, however, doctors believe that her father-in-law was also infected with Nipah virus. Besides, it has been reported that their entire family eats date juice without boiling it, a common cause of the spread of this disease.
