Sir,
Subject: Dengue-Prevention is better than cure!
In the past month, an alarming increase in the incidence of dengue cases in the city has been noticed which is a cause for extreme concern and demands the immediate attention of the Health Care department, Municipal Corporation as well as of the general public.
Dengue is a viral infection is caused by a virus which cannot be treated with antibiotics. It is treated with under Doctor's supervision. precautions to prevent this terrible disease:

  1. Dengue spreads through mosquito bites. To stop the transmission from one patient to another individual, it is necessary to use mosquito nets at night
  2. Mosquito eradication is necessary for indoors as well as in neighbourhood; thus spraying of mosquito repellant is necessary.
  3. Limbs should be coated with mosquito repellant sprays and lotions.

High fever is a discernible symptom and may lead to complications due to lowering of the platelet count. Any bleeding during the infection would be difficult to control. Severe cases may require blood transfusions.
Since, the carrier mosquito breeds in stagnant waters, close to human habitations, cleanliness of the environment is immensely important and a key precaution for prevention. Vaccination is not an option and any previous infection does not guarantee immunity as there are numerous viruses that cause it.
Awareness is immensely important to initiate preventive measures. I hope my letter will be published for the common good of the people.
Thanking you,
Yours truly,
Varsha.
