DENGUE RETURNS WITH RAINS IN STATE
Friday, 15 July 2016 | PNS | Dehradun | in Dehradun

With rains the dreaded dengue has returned to haunt the State. In Dehradun 20 cases of the disease have been reported till date. However, the health department is claiming that only one case of dengue has occurred in the district.

This discrepancy has cropped up as the State health department only considers Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) positive cases as actual number of people suffering from the disease and does not consider the results of Rapid test.

The department admits that 20 samples have been found positive in Rapid test this season. The department is also not considering the death of the one patient, a Bhandaribagh resident by the disease as the ELISA test of this patient was not conducted in the authorised labs of the health department.
