Dengue sweeps Sri Lanka_我的网站

A | Colombo, Oct 14 (UNI) The number of dengue patients has increased by 300 per cent compared to 2021 in Sri Lanka, a newspaper reported on Friday.
The President of the College of Medical Laboratory Science (CMLS), Ravi Kumudesh, told The Island that about 60,000 cases have been reported so far this year across the country.
“During the same time in 2021, fewer than 20,000 cases were reported. Most cases have been reported from the Western Province. Higher numbers are also reported from Kandy, Galle, Jaffna, Kegalle, Puttalam, and Kurunegala districts,” he said.
Kumudesh said 36 health divisions have been declared vulnerable areas. However, most government hospitals did not have testing kits to detect dengue, he said.
“The Ministry of Health has not paid a number of companies for testing kits purchased in the past. Now, these companies do not sell test kits to the Ministry of Health.
"In the meantime, Rs. 125 million earmarked for purchasing medicine in the 2022 third quarter has not been spent. Another $60 million are left in the Indian credit line to buy medicines. We can easily buy testing kits and reagents with this money,” he said.
UNI MR。 San Jose, Oct 22 (UNI) A small plane with five German nationals on board went missing near the Caribbean coast off Costa Rica on Friday afternoon, Public Security Minister Jorge Torres confirmed.
The minister said on Friday the plane was heading for the airport in Costa Rica's eastern province of Limon when it disappeared from the radar.
"Around 6:00 in the afternoon we received an alert about a private flight from Mexico to the Limon airport, this aircraft was traveling with five passengers of German nationality," Torres said in a video announcement.
The plane lost communication with the control tower near the Barra de Parismina area in the northeastern part of the country, a region that is difficult to access due to its natural channels and mangroves, the minister said.
Emergency protocol with the Coast Guard and Air Surveillance Service was activated after the incident, said the official, adding that searching operation had to be suspended due to late hours and bad weather and would be resumed at 5:00 a.m. Saturday morning.
So far the official has not disclosed identities of the pilot and passengers of the plane.
