Dengue death figure fudged: report
By Prithvijit Mitra, TNN | Jan 25, 2013, 02.57 AM IST

Kolkata.
...
Compiled with data collected over the last four years, mostly from government sources, the report titled "Status of Environment Report in West Bengal" will be released at the Kolkata Book Fair on January 26. It has collated and analysed figures on a range of areas including air quality, water, waste management, noise pollution, public health, vector borne diseases, demography, wetlands, forest and wildlife and biodiversity, with a special focus on conversion of banks, polluting ferroalloy factories in the city and violation of coastal zone regulations at Mandarmani.
...
"Reports and data that we have compiled from various sources, including government ones, tell a different story. There is enough evidence to suggest that the dengue outbreak was a far more serious one than it was made out to be," said an official associated with the survey. It also mentions that more than 500 people have died annually due to acute encephalitis between 2008 and 2012.
...
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/...figure-fudged-report/articleshow/18174818.cms

Comment - West Bengal has reported the following official encephalitis fatalities;
2008: 1
2009: 10
2010: 0
2011: 61
2012: 53
While I expected that some under-reporting was going on, I am staggered by the magnitude of the dishonesty from the state. This latest report suggests that each confirmed death represents 19 others that are unreported officially.- Ro

Comment: Sadly no mention here of prevention, no mention of enteroviruses or dirty water, no mention of any viral or bacterial agent, no mention of the types of wells that these people have access to, no mention of the presence or absence of a sewer system. The drinking water in the area is largely contaminated with iron and arsenic http://jcbsc.org/journal/Paper/Vol_3_I_1_2012/D8.pdf In 2010 only 26% of the town had access to piped, chlorinated water. The rest rely on private wells. The town has no sewage system and 38% of households do not have a toilet so open defecation is common. Around 25% of the town does not have trash collection. http://urban.bih.nic.in/Docs/CDP/CDP-Muzaffarpur.pdf - Ro

Explaining various measures taken by the district administration to fight AES, the DM told newsmen that the disease is basically related to temperature and malnutrition as it appears only during summer among poor rural families. He said the foremost need of the hour is the publicity of guidelines for proper first aid to suffering children by family members and to carry the children to the nearest. The government is ready to meet the cost of the transport also, he said.

....

On the other hand, the civil surgeon said officially, only one case of AES has been confirmed so far and it was the patient who died in SK Medical College Hospital. Altogether, 12 patients with AES symptoms have been admitted in the last 27 days here. Of them, eight were admitted to SKMCH and the rest four in Kejriwal private nursing home.

Expert team in Patna to study litchi-encephalitis connection

Patna, May 10, 2013, DHNS:
A team of experts from the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), New Delhi, has flown down to Bihar amidst reports that three children, suspected to have been afflicted with acute encephalitis syndrome (AES), have died in the last few days.

The experts will study litchi orchards in Muzaffarpur district and find out whether there is any link with AES because it is suspected that the dreadful disease–encephalitis–breaks out during the fruition season of litchi, and the virus thrives in the litchi plants.
...
The experts team had visited Bihar last year too and probed the lifestyle and food habits of two survivors – (two children had fallen ill but survived). After classifying the disease as acute encephalitis syndrome, they concluded that it was caused by an infectious agent that remained yet to be identified.
