Pune: Dengue Cases Surge In July As Intermittent Rains Boost Mosquito Breeding · freepressjournal.in

In Pune, there has been a big increase in dengue cases in July.

This is because the rain has been coming and going, which leaves puddles of water that mosquitoes like to breed in.

The city government is trying to stop the spread by cleaning up these areas and telling people to be careful.

Doctors say it's important to get help if you feel sick, especially if you have a high fever or feel very tired.
