DENGUE IN WEST BENGAL

Dr. Vandana G. Trivedi

Dengue is a communicable disease that spreads by the bite of mosquito.  After Second World War, dengue started spreading actively across the world. India is also facing this problem. Mortality rate of Dengue is also high in India. During the year of 2014 - 2018, the cases of dengue skyrocketed to be the highest in West Bengal compared to all the other states of India. In this paper, we will discuss about the spread of Dengue in West Bengal through ‘district – wise statistical data’. The paper will also point out the data about district-wise number of cases of Dengue during the year 2012 – 2016, as well as mortality rate of Dengue during the same year, in India. We will compare the change in the number of total cases of Dengue during this time period. Also this paper will provide us the data regarding the rapid spread of Dengue in various regions. This study indirectly highlights the major efforts of the district to control the spread of disease.
