More than 21,000 people in Vietnam have contracted dengue fever so far this year, and 20 have died, according to reports from the National Institute of Epidemiology and Pasteur institutes across the country. | |||||||
The figures show a 46.7 percent increase year-on-year, and the number of people dying of the mosquito-borne illness is four higher than the same period last year. According to the Hanoi Healthcare Preventative Center, the capital city is facing a potential outbreak of the disease with 80 cases reported so far this year. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health said the epidemic will continue in the south, as rain combined with hot, humid weather creates conditions for mosquitoes to flourish. Source: SGGP |
