Mohammad Mizan, 38, from Juranpur in Cumilla’s Daudkandi upazila, has been undergoing treatment for dengue at the Tropical Medicine Ward of Dhaka Medical College Hospital since Friday.
The risk of a rapid dengue outbreak looms large across the country, with entomologists warning that unusually high densities of Aedes mosquito larvae have been detected in multiple districts since January.
As the country grapples with rising cases of coronavirus and mosquito-borne dengue, there has been a resurgence of another mosquito-borne disease, Chikungunya, in Dhaka.
Sourav Chakrabarti, an HSC student from Noakhali, came to Daudkandi in Cumilla to spend his vacation with relatives. However, his holiday turned into a period of suffering after he was diagnosed with dengue.
On the day of Eid-ul-Azha (June 7), Omar Al Arabi, a third-grader at Barguna Collectorate School and College, was diagnosed with dengue.
With only two days left before Eid-ul-Azha, cattle markets in Dhaka are yet to pick up full momentum.
With intermittent rainfall continuing across the country and a 10-day Eid holiday beginning today, experts are warning of a spike in dengue cases.
Though 20 cattle markets in Dhaka officially started operating from yesterday, the number of customers remains very low.
