One more succumbs to scrub typhus in Himachal, govt apathy blamed for spread of disease

One more patient died of scrub typhus on Tuesday, taking the total count so far to 28. The deaths have also exposed lack of health facilities in Himachal Pradesh. Surprisingly, improving health infrastructure does not figure in the poll agenda of parties even in an election year, while the election campaign noise has suppressed the cries of families, who have lost their dear ones.
