DISEASE OUTBREAKS TEST KERALA GOVT COMPETENCE
The Morning Standard
|July 19, 2024
A surge in infectious diseases has plunged Kerala into a health crisis its worst since the end of the Covid pandemic.
-
While a brain-eating amoeba has killed three children, the rare West Nile virus has claimed four lives and the relatively common H1N1 infection has caused 18 fatalities all in recent months. Besides, cholera has made a comeback with 21 people taking ill in Thiruvananthapuram; one death has been attributed to the disease. Government data shows as many as 150 people have died due to multiple disease outbreaks in the first half of 2024, but the numbers are possibly higher as many cases are likely to have gone unreported. And, as usually happens during monsoon, there has been a significant rise in dengue and leptospirosis cases since June.
