Have they closed open gutters in every street or are they waiting for their own family to get sick before they give 2 hoots about the outbreak in other areas?

If they were serious they would have succeeded Dengue isnt that hard to get rid off.....Just requires awareness (which Pakistan suck at) and lots of dedication in keeping the breeding of mosquitoes on the low by AT LEAST DOING THEIR PART of keeping the gutters closed and not overflowing!

Oh and stop giving antibiotics for everything health dept! Dengue is viral not bacterial

its treatable in the sense they give tablet to reduce fever/pain. I read somewhere it has 25% or more mortality rate which is scary. Any docs here to give more info?
