Woman dies of diarrhoea

Karwar: A woman died of diarrhoea in Satnalli village in Haliyal taluk on Tuesday. Tulasa N. Badiger (44) was admitted to a private hospital last week. When her condition deteriorated, she was shifted to a medical college hospital in Hubli where she died.

With this, two persons have died of diarrhoea in the village in a span of a week.

On August 3, Yalluki Jeevanappa Kaktikar died of diarrhoea.

The village residents say that another person called Narayan had also died of diarrhoea recently. But the health officials say that Narayan was suffering by anemia and gangrene and he did not die of diarrhoea.

The Health Department officials have treated 240 patients suffering from diarrhoea in the last fortnight.
