Kerala’s Health Department is bracing for fresh Zika cases that may crop up from scattered locations the following days, given the phenomenal rise in vector density across districts
Even as no new cases of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection were reported from the capital district or anywhere else in the State on Wednesday, the Health Department is bracing for fresh cases that may crop up from scattered locations the following days, given the phenomenal rise in vector density across districts. Now that clinicians are aware that cases with fever and rashes, which are negative for dengue and chikungunya (CHK) could be ZIKV, it is likely that more samples would reach the labs for testing in the coming days.More Related News
