Dengue cases in Delhi touch 1,186
In Mumbai, on Thursday there were 160 cases. In Delhi the government decided not to impose till Sunday any challans on the owners of premises where mosquitoes were found to be breeding. "The citizens should act responsibly and take initiatives to control the breeding of mosquitoes in their areas and surroundings," Health Minister Yoganand Shastri said.
Common symptons are with fever, body ache and cold. At this time avoid if at all possible, being bitten by mosquitos. Try if available tropical strength repellent containing the chemical DEET (diethyltoluamide or diethylmethylbenzamide) or repellents containing the chemical picaridin. Always read the label.
When you’re sick with dengue you can spread dengue to mosquitoes that bite you:
(i) You can stop dengue being transmitted by wearing repellent while you’re sick.
(ii) It takes at least three days after you become infected before you will feel sick.
(iii) Dengue also occurs in Queensland, Australia. The last outbreak in Queensland ceased on 9 September 2006.
