Dengue statistics are just the tip of the iceberg in Bangalore

By Soumita Majumdar | Place: Bangalore | Agency: DNA


The BBMP?s record shows 961 confirmed cases of dengue this year, and in November alone the city accounted for 130 cases, revealing a sharp rise.

The actual number of cases in the city, however, may be larger by a factor of 10, because the BBMP figure only pertains to cases where samples were sent to the National Institute of Virology (NIV) for confirmation. It?s an open secret that many private hospitals treat patients with dengue-like symptoms without NIV testing.
