Jammu region shows trend of spike in dengue cases
JAMMU, Sep 2 (PTI): Dengue cases have been rising the past fortnight, with Jammu recording the highest number of cases in the region, officials said.
So far this year, over 1,100 cases have been reported across the Jammu region, which is slightly lower than last year, they said.
Health officials pointed out that heavy rains and waterlogging have created conditions for mosquito breeding. “Water is stagnating in several places, which is leading to mosquito growth,” they said.
