LUCKNOW: With one more death, the number of people succumbing to dengue in the State has gone 11 while the number of suspected cases shot up to 418 even as strict directives were issued to civic authorities to check the spread of the disease, official sources here said. Separate wards have been set up in government hospitals besides emergency services were made available in all the hospitals to deal with the situation effectively, said Director, Communicable Disease, Dr O P Pathak. The kit for determining dengue has also been made available for providing prompt treatment to the patients, he said. Necessary directives have already been issued to respective chief medical officers to undertake fogging and sprinkling of insecticides. The health department officials have been asked to collect information about dengue patients in different parts of the state and take prompt action to control the situation, Pathak said. Medicines have been provided at all the primary health centres and community health centres, they said adding that control rooms were also being set up at district level government hospitals.
