ATHANI: Three more cases of suspected bird flu were reported at Telsang village recently.

Villagers were gripped with tension. The health department and other departments concerned were not handling the matter satisfactorily, they said. APCC member, Mahesh Kumtalli said the District Health Department should take the matter seriously and immediately send specialists to the village.

Taluk medical officer, Kulkarni advised the villagers to drink boiled or filtered water.

He asked them to keep their personal and surrounding premises clean.

Interestingly, no district authorities have visited the place yet, suspected to be in the grip of the dicey bird flu.

It may be recalled that 25 people suffering from fever were reported to have symptoms of bird flu and were rushed to the Primary Health Centre in Telsang village on Thursday.
