Diarrhea Broke
out in Feni
Mabrur Atiqi, Dhaka, 04 November: Diarrhea has broken out in an
epidemic form in five villages of Feni. It has already claimed 10 lives and
attacked about 1000 people in the last few days. The situation is going from
bad to worse day by day. The cause of the outbreak of diarrhea is the taking of
unwholesome food owing to poverty and scarcity of pure drinking water.
The
diarrhea patients are being treated in Upazila Health Complex, and the serious
patients have been sent to Mohakhali Diarrhea Hospital for treatment. The
government has sent a medical team with necessary medicines to treat the
patients.
A
few NGOs have also extended their cooperation to supply food to the
poverty-stricken people and to treat the diarrheal patients. They are also
supplying water purifying tablets and medicines among the victims.
