Dengue in Tamil Nadu, alert in border areas
STAFF REPORTER

2,000 CASES IN 2 MONTHS

Many dengue cases were reported in parts of Tirunelveli in the past two months (2,000 cases and 29 deaths, as per official figures).

Some of the severely affected areas are Kadayanallur, Thenkasi, and Amba Samudram in Tirunelveli. Health officials here reckon that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

?According to the World Health Organisation, it is the movement of people rather than mosquitoes, which results in dengue transmission. There is regular movement of people from here to districts just across the border and back. We cannot restrict people's movement. Instead we are focussing on vector control activities to reduce the spread of infection,? a senior health official said.
...
CO-INFECTIONS

They said that there had been reports of dengue-leptospirosis co-infections from the border towns in Tirunelveli and Kanyakumari, which seemed to have contributed to the high case mortality there.

Dengue scare rocks city
Daniel Thimmayya

CHENNAI: On Wednesday night an SMS that started in media circles went viral ? ?First dengue death in Chennai. Manjula (29) d/o Kasinathan died due to dengue. She was admitted in KHM Hospital in Anna Nagar,? it read. While it turned out that the woman tested negative for the disease post-mortem, word had got out and caused a mini panic. Courtesy the widespread news about 34 dengue deaths indicating an epidemic in the Tirunelveli-Tuticorin belt, people were understandably afraid. ?We have run out of mosquito repellant and coils in the last two days. People have begun purchasing two and three mosquito nets, like they're going to war,? said the store manager of a retail supermarket in Anna Nagar. While mosquito quelling measures are very much in vogue during a regular Chennai summer, this time the scare has taken things a little further.
