Dengue In Delhi Schools

Gearing up for the rainy season during which there is high prevalence of dengue, Delhi Government has asked all schools in the national capital to ensure there is no breeding of aedes mosquitoes in and around their premises.

In less than a week, two children in Delhi have died, allegedly because hospitals turned them away during a lethal outbreak of dengue fever. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal made surprise inspections of state-run hospitals today.

As Delhi confronts the worst dengue outbreak in five years, schools have been asked to make sure that children wear full sleeve uniforms for the next one month.

To contain the escalating disease in the city, the three Delhi Municipal Corporations have initiated 'dengue homework programme' in all of their schools.

The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has issued challans to four hospitals, including AIIMS and Safdarjung, various government offices and a school in the city after dengue mosquitoes were found breeding on their premises.

With an aim of training school children about various measures to prevent Dengue and Chikunguniya, the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) today organised a rally for civic body-run Navyug schools.

As dengue tightens its grip over the national capital, schools are slightly relaxing their strict rules regarding uniforms for students.     With the city reporting over 1300 dengue cases and four deaths due to the vector-borne disease, schools are eager to ensure that children do not suffer from mosquito bites.   ...
