This monsoon, diseases like dengue, leptospirosis, malaria, and even viral fevers are wreaking havoc in many parts of the country. In addition, there have been a few reported cases of West Nile and Avian Flu. In Gujarat, the Chandipura virus has already claimed about 15 lives in the past several days.
In addition to West Nile and Avian Flu occurrences, Kerala is dealing with an increase in dengue and leptospirosis cases. Kerala has had around 202 fatalities in 2024 so far; in July alone, there were 202,122 episodes of fever, 2,250 cases of dengue, 1,850 cases of mumps and several other illnesses.
More than 10,000 cases of dengue, including eight fatal cases, have been reported so far this year in the adjacent state of Karnataka. Industry insiders report that there has also been a significant increase in influenza cases in Delhi, Rajasthan and Gujarat. More than 1,000 swine flu cases have apparently been documented in Rajasthan thus far, while leptospirosis and brucellosis infections are also expected to peak in 2024.
