Santa Clara sees an increase in cases of
dengue fever
SANTA CLARA, September 11 (Benito Key,
Cubanacán Press / www.cubanet.org)
- Residents of Santa Clara say all signs
indicate an outbreak of dengue fever in
the city and the government-controlled media
do not acknowledge it while exhorting the
population to eradicate the breeding grounds
for the mosquito that transmits the disease.
Some talk about hundreds of victims of
the disease, others mention deaths. Those
suspected of having the disease are admitted
to the old nursing school, now known as
"Area 3," and subsequently taken
to the provincial hospital if after six
days they turn out to be infected.
