As many as 920 people in the central province of Phu Yen have contracted dengue fever so far this year, a whopping 550 percent increase year-on-year, and two have died. | |||||||
A meeting on tackling the epidemic in the province on Friday heard the fever had spread in the districts of Phu Hoa, Dong Hoa and Song Cau districts, as well as Tuy Hoa Town. Head of the hospitalâs Department of Infectious Diseases, Doan Van Hau, said it has only 25 beds, but there were more than 100 inpatients, 62 with dengue fever. Since April, the department has received 429 dengue fever inpatients and mobilized all of the hospitalâs personnel in providing treatment, but the resources were badly lacking, Hau added. Phu Yen has had the central regionâs highest incidence of dengue fever over the last five years, the meeting heard. Reported by Hung Phien |
