Due to dengue of the young, death of mosquitoes in Alibaug
Suicide Gajanan Bhagat (30) resident of Koliwada area of ​​the city has died of dengue.
By Online Lokmat | Follow| Published: July 21, 2018 02:48 AM | Updated: July 21, 2018 02:48 AM

Alibaug: Resident of Koliwada area of ​​the city Sujit Gajanan Bhagat (30) has died of dengue. This is the first victim of dengue in this monsoon. The claim made by the municipal administration with the health of the district health system has failed due to the death of Sujit. "How can we say that Sujit's death has caused dengue fever in Alibaug," Alibaug Municipal Corporation's Chief Officer Mahesh Chaudhary said to Lokmat.
Sushej is known by the hardworking young man who lives in Koliwada, Alibaug. He got married just two and a half years ago and is a half year old girl. A few days back, he got treatment in a local hospital due to the fever. After that he got agitated in work. However, due to overwhelming difficulty, he was admitted to the district government hospital, but Sujit's condition was serious. So the doctor gave the advice of taking it urgently to Mumbai. J.J. He was diagnosed with dengue at the hospital. He died on 17 July during treatment, due to his body rapidly decreasing his body.
After the death of Sujit's death, the District Hospital officials conducted health checks of their family members, as well as the residents of the area. Due to the death due to infected Dengue, there is a possibility of spread of dengue in the city. District Health Administration has started inspection in the Koliwada area, and health authorities have appealed to keep the dubs and premises clean near the house.
> Fogging machine's claim falsely
Alibag Municipal Corporation's Chief Officer Mahesh Chaudhary told the Lokmat that in every ward of Alibag city, measures are taken to eradicate the mosquitoes. In it, fogging machine is rotated in the daily ward. In the same way, it is claimed that the drug spraying is done regularly in the gutter, although the citizens have denied this claim. However, he can not say that Sujit Bhagat died due to the ill-burning of Alibag. The measures taken by the municipal administration to eradicate mosquitoes Social worker Dilip Jog said that the important post of health inspector is vacant in Alibag Municipal Corporation since 2010.
Dengue reduces platelets in some of the body cells. If there are platelets on 20 thousand, then treatment can be done here. If he is below him, he would have no choice but to send the patient to Mumbai for further treatment. Alibag is not available for various blood test checks.

Mumbai: 60-year-old missing dengue patient found dead in unused canteen of Nair Hospital
? By Swapnil Mishra | Jul 25, 2018 07:54 am FOLLOW US:

Mumbai: After suddenly going ?missing? from the general ward of the civic-run Nair Hospital, a 60-year-old man from Dharavi was found dead in an unused canteen of the hospital on Monday. The man, a dengue patient, had been admitted on July 22. According to hospital staff, since hundreds of patients were similarly dressed (in hospital-issued clothing), they could not identify the missing man in time.

A civic official blamed it on the monsoon, saying there were so many people getting sick and hospital wards were getting crowded, making it impossible to keep tabs on every patient. ?We are accommodating more than 60 patients in a ward which has a capacity of 40. In such chaos it is impossible for a ward boy or nurse to keep an eye on every patient. As soon as we realised the patient was missing we began a search operation,? said the official.

RIMS fatality stings Hindpiri
Our Correspondent Aug 08, 2018 00:00 IST


Ranchi: An elderly Hindpiri man, suffering from high fever and joint pain that are chikungunya symptoms, died on Tuesday morning at RIMS here, but health officials did not confirm the cause of death as his blood sample had not been tested.

The same day 44 people of the minority-dominated locality in Ranchi tested positive for the viral infection. Five among the 44 also tested positive for dengue, making this one of the worst outbreaks in Hindpiri.

Asked if Md Ekram, 65, of Nala Road in Hindpiri who died in a few hours of being admitted to RIMS on Monday night, could be called the first chikungunya casualty, Ranchi district malaria office Dr Manju Prasad said she could not confirm it.


"There is no test report in the case. During the course of our probe, we visited the residence of the deceased and came to know that a doctor in Upper Bazar and then another in Hindpiri had treated him, but none had sent his blood samples for tests. He was admitted to RIMS on Monday night where he died this morning. So, officially, we can't confirm the reason," Dr Prasad said.

'Unknown' fever! Then came back again
Own correspondent
Calcutta |
9th Aug, 2018, 04:57:20
Last updated: August 9, 2018, 05:12:40

Koch Bihar to Baduria - Four people have died in the state. The Death Certificate of Kusar Ali Molla of Baduria was written, 'Dangi Shock' is one of the reasons for death. Although the health officials said that dengue was not found in the medical records of the dead. What if? Until Wednesday noon, the health officials had said, 'We have to look further.' That means, no matter how many times it is being checked, the cause of death in the health department will be 'unknown'!

Health Secretary Rajib Sinha has ordered to review the cause of death in the evening, however, health secretary sources said. On this day, a meeting with health officials discussed the 'unknown' fever across the state. It has been said that, if the patient is not admitted in a government or a private hospital, then there should be a clear idea office for reasons of death.


Many people are doubtful about the consequences of knowing this 'unknown' Because, for the last three years, patients with dengue symptoms went to the government institutions for treatment, they did not diagnose the major diseases.

'Unknown' malfunction


? The way to get relief is not known.

? What kind of medical treatment is necessary, is not evident.

? How the disease spreads, remains unknown.

? What are the precautions to be careful, even unknown?

? Increases the risk of transmission becoming more serious.

According to the private estimates, at least 80 people died in Dangi in 2017. The number of affected people is 50 thousand. Although according to the state's estimates, 46 people had died. Affected 37 thousand 746 Then the rest of the dead died? Government explanation, 'unknown' fever. But how many people were affected, some died, the information was not available to the health building. One official said, "We do not keep the information of the patient who has not been diagnosed."

The crowd of patients suffering from fever has been growing since the last week of July. In government hospitals and health centers, it has been found that 11 patients of Purulia, 30 in north 24 Parganas, 30 patients admitted to Kolkata's ID hospital. Private hospital sources news, number of patients at least 15

A section of government doctors reports that most of the medical college hospitals in Kolkata are being tested and released. And in the hospitals of the district, strict instructions should not be given to refer to 'Dangi' in Calcutta.

But if the fever of the year is 'unknown', then what is the warning to the people to take precautions? Health director Ajay Chakraborty said, "In most cases, unknown fever is death in a private institution. So the real reason is not being evaluated. However, there is no situation to panic. "

The central health ministry complained last year about not giving state information about dengue and other related diseases. Commenting on one of the officials of the ministry, "In a state where there are research institutes like the School of Tropical Medicine, how does a disease leave 'unknown' year after year, does not enter the head."

New study estimates about 60,000 people exposed to dengue virus each year in Pune
Researchers said that in over 81 per cent of people who participated in the study, they found the presence of antibodies against dengue virus, indicating an “intense transmission of the virus” and past exposure to infection.

Written by Anuradha Mascarenhas | Pune | Published: August 15, 2018 10:41:49 am

While Pune records a few hundred cases of dengue every year, a first of its kind study in the city has revealed that the actual number of people exposed to the dengue virus could be several times higher. The study, supported by the Indian Council of Medical Research and published in the PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases journal, estimates that over eight per cent of the city’s population, or close to 60,000 people, could be exposed to the dengue virus.

Researchers said that in over 81 per cent of people who participated in the study, they found the presence of antibodies against dengue virus, indicating an “intense transmission of the virus” and past exposure to infection.

The study found an overall “high disease burden” of dengue in the city but suboptimal immunity in younger groups.
...
Globally, there are approximately 390 million infections annually, 96 million clinical cases and 20,000 deaths. India accounts for almost 34 per cent of these cases.

According to the National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme, last year there were [190,000] dengue cases and 325 deaths in the country.

Abstract
Background
In India, dengue disease is emerging as the most important vector borne public health problem due to rapid and unplanned urbanization, high human density and week management of the disease. Clinical cases are grossly underreported and not much information is available on prevalence and incidence of the disease.

Methodology
A cross sectional, stratified, facility based, multistage cluster sampling was conducted between May 4 and June 27, 2017 in Pune city. A total of 1,434 participants were enrolled. The serum samples were tested for detection of historical dengue IgG antibodies by ELISA using the commercial Panbio Dengue IgG Indirect ELISA kit. Anti-dengue IgG-capture Panbio ELISA was used for detection of high titered antibodies to detect recent secondary infection. We used this data to estimate key transmission parameters like force of infection and basic reproductive number. A subset of 120 indirect ELISA positive samples was also tested for Plaque Reduction Neutralizing Antibodies for determining serotype-specific prevalence.

Findings
Overall, 81% participants were infected with dengue virus (DENV) at least once if not more. The positivity was significantly different in different age groups. All the adults above 70 years were positive for DENV antibodies. Over 69% participants were positive for neutralizing antibodies against all 4 serotypes suggesting intense transmission of all DENV serotypes in Pune. Age-specific seroprevalence was consistent with long-term, endemic circulation of DENV. There was an increasing trend with age, from 21.6% among <36 months to 59.4% in age group 10?12 years. We estimate that 8.68% of the susceptible population gets infected by DENV each year resulting into more than 3,00,000 infections and about 47,000 to 59,000 cases per year. This transmission intensity is similar to that reported from other known hyper-endemic settings in Southeast Asia and the Americas but significantly lower than report from Chennai.

Conclusions
Our study suggests that Pune city has high disease burden, all 4 serotypes are circulating, significant spatial heterogeneity in seroprevalence and suboptimal immunity in younger age groups. This would allow informed decisions to be made on management of dengue and introduction of upcoming dengue vaccines in the city.

AIIMS administration is in danger from the death of women employee
Publish Date: Sun, Aug 19, 2018 11:32 AM (IST)

Failure to prevent disease prevented the corporation from pressing the case. Figures being shown less in junket than figures. There are 1900 suspected cases in Safdarjung.

New Delhi (JnN). The death of a woman employee in the country's largest government hospital in Delhi has put the AIIMS administration in the dockyard. Despite this, the AIIMS administration has kept silence on the death of its female employee. More than that, the danger that the woman worker's death has caused, now the danger is also hovering on all the Delhiites. It is being told that the people of Delhi including other employees of AIIMS have also seen the effect of this outbreak.


In the past year, malaria, dengue, chikungunya and viral fever seem to have taken no lesson from governments. In fact, this year too, the people of the capital have been caught in different forms of fever these days. There is a huge crowd of such patients in the hospitals. Meanwhile, a female employee of AIIMS died from dengue. This is the first death from dengue in Delhi this year. However, the AIIMS administration has avoided speaking anything on this.

According to the sources of AIIMS, the female employee was employed in the post of assistant (attendant). After her husband's death, she got a job in compassion on AIIMS. She used to live in the AIIMS residential premises AB Nagar. Sources reveal that he had been suffering from dengue for several days and was recruiting in AIIMS for about seven days. He died on August 14. It is being told that many other people in AB city are also suffering from dengue. It is evident from the outbreak of dengue mosquitoes in the residential premises of AIIMS. Employees say that drugs are not being sprayed for the prevention of dengue this year. In this regard, no response was received for contacting the AIIMS Administration.

Dangue and Chikungunya data on the corporation is suspected

Responsible for the prevention of dengue, chikungunya and malaria is on the shoulders of the municipal corporation. The formation of mosquitoes and the failure of the municipal corporation to prevent these diseases is also involved in suppressing the case. The statistics of the hospitals indicate this.


According to the Municipal Corporation, till August 9 this year, 87 cases of malaria have been reported, 130 cases of dengue and 87 cases of Chikungunya have been reported. Out of these, 64 cases of dengue and 41 cases of Chikungunya are from Delhi. Unlike the claims of the corporation, 122 cases of dengue have been reported in Safdarjung Hospital alone. Suspicious cases of more than 1900 dengue have been reported in Safdarjung Hospital. Of these, 122 patients have been confirmed to suffer from dengue.

Other patients were suffering from viral fever, which had symptoms like dengue. At the same time, in RML hospital of Delhi, only 502 possible dengue cases and 489 possible cases of Chikungunya had arrived. Out of this, 37 patients had confirmed chikungunya in dengue and 62 patients. In this way 159 cases of dengue have been brought together by these hospitals.
