Following up on our earlier post on Dengue Fever in Pakistan, maybe I was wrong about the extent of public health awareness after all.

There is very little that I can add to the facts included in the caption of this photograph in the Dawn today (7 November, 2006):

“The sewage and all kinds of garbage accumulated behind the special isolation ward for dengue fever patients in the Jinnah Hospital mocks at the government claim of having taken measures to contain mosquito borne disease.”

    Deeda-i-Beena,

    But the picture in the post is that of a government hospital, not a private home. So, who should be responsible for cleaning up this filth and mess?
