Dengue Scar Hits UP: Hospitals Flooded With Patients; Lucknow, Kanpur Worst Hit

Lucknow: The Dengue outbreak has severely impacted Uttar Pradesh during the festive season. Hospitals in almost all major cities of UP are flooded with Dengue patients, with new cases being reported daily. The number of Dengue patients admitted to various hospitals in UP districts has crossed the 13,000 mark, and in the last 24 hours, 600 new cases have been identified. The majority of Dengue patients are in Lucknow, Moradabad, Kanpur, and Noida.

Although government figures state that only 24 patients have died due to Dengue so far, unofficial figures could be higher if deaths in private hospitals are included. Health department officials have mentioned that the number of Dengue patients in UP might increase in the coming days due to changes in the weather. The mercury in UP has dropped since Monday due to rain and strong winds.
