Delhi. On the one hand, the country is struggling with Corona, while the change in weather after passing Holi has created new problems. Dengue and Malaria cases have also started coming up in the country. Talking about Delhi Hospitals in Delhi, 14 cases of dengue and five cases of malaria have been reported so far. However, these include patients from other states besides Delhi (Delhi).

While the Central and State Governments are making all arrangements to deal with the growing cases of Corona, the risk of Dengue and Malaria has increased under the cover of Corona. Health experts also believe that the entire focus is on the dreaded corona, in which other diseases can spread. Even the slightest negligence can give terrible results. Dengue and malaria cases may increase with increasing heat.

Outbreaks of mosquito have increased in Delhi as well as surrounding states. This is also the time when arrangements are made to protect against dengue and there is an attempt to prevent mosquitoes in the clean water kept in the houses. Fogging is done on behalf of the municipal corporations. But according to the information received, the staff in the municipal corporations of NCR, other than Delhi, are already engaged in sanitization work to prevent corona, so fogging is not possible. So the situation can be challenging.

Dr. in ICMR. NK Arora says that in the last few days, there have been similar cases in the country when a person suffering from corona had also got dengue. However, this is very rare. Never is nature so cruel that it gives all diseases to one person, but negligence on this issue can be overwhelming. Apart from this, several variants of Corona have recently appeared. In such a situation, if the person can get sick from different variants then it is not impossible to have malaria or dengue with corona.

Dr. Despite this, Arora says that people should take measures to prevent malaria and dengue. The two challenges are different at the moment. The first is to take preventive measures from the corona, the second is to be careful and take preventive measures against vector Borne Disease like dengue and malaria.

People believe that mosquitoes also die due to sanitization due to corona, so there is no problem, but the thing to understand here is that the sanitizer does not kill mosquitoes but only the effect of the virus ends. Fogging is necessary to kill mosquitoes. Apart from this, measures can also be taken in homes. These are different diseases and their remedies are also different.
