Dengue Cases Increase in East Burdwan Due to Transmission
Dengue fever cases are rising in parts of East Burdwan.
This is because the dengue-carrying mosquitoes pass the virus to their babies, which makes them already infected.
As of Saturday, 116 cases have been recorded.
Officials are doing more to control mosquitoes, and they are trying to inform the public.
The area had a similar outbreak last year, prompting health officials to take extra caution.
They're checking places where mosquitoes like to breed, such as in containers that hold water.
Dengue cases are increasing in East Burdwan, India.
