Talcher, 11 August: Angul district reported its first dengue death today with a nurse of MCL central hospital succumbing to the mosquito-borne disease while undergoing treatment at a private clinical establishment in Bhubaneswar.
Forty-five year old, Sema Manjari Sahu, was found dengue positive about 20 days ago and had been shifted to Bhubaneswar immediately.
According to chief of the central hospital Mr S Shukla here, her condition had deteriorated with failure of kidney and other vital organs. The end came this afternoon.
The victim belonged to the Bonai area of Sundergarh district.
Meanwhile, her death spread panic in the industrial town. Angul district counts for the second highest district-wise tally of dengue patients.
The coal area had witnessed as many as 15 deaths during the dengue outbreak in 2011.
The concerned citizens lamented prompt action on part of the authorities to prevent further spread of the disease.
“No major remedial and preventive measures have been taken in the colliery area to tackle the situation. Actually we fear that false claims are being made while work is being done only on pen and paper,” said one elderly citizen, wishing not to be named.
He exhorted the MCL chief Mr AN Sahay to intervene and ensure adequate anti-dengue steps before more people get affected with the disease. SNS
