VISAKHAPATNAM :  Viral fevers are spreading their tentacles in the district particularly agency areas Indicating the dire need for an immediate action by the state government nearly 6500 malaria cases have been detected in the district thus far of which over 5000 have been reported in tribal areas itself

As per records available with the government about 437 lakh blood samples have been collected across the district and 6457 have tested positive for malaria In the tribal areas 5090 of 244 lakh tribals are suffering from malariaIn tribal areas the mosquito menace is much higher when compared to that in plain areas Due to the efforts of medical and health department besides lack of heavy rains the mosquito menace is under control which in turn resulted in lesser cases this year compared to last year said a medical officer working at Paderu

City dwellers and those in rural parts of the district also have become the victims of viral fevers with 932 of 67610 blood samples collected in Visakhapatnam city and 435 of 125111 blood samples collected in rural areas tested positive for malaria “Fortunately there are no dengue cases in the district Though other viral fevers are rampant they are not at alarming levels” the officials said

Making things worse the district medical and health authorities could not fulfill their targeted number of villages for fogging and spraying the mosquito repellent As against the target of 2505 villages the officials could take up fogging and mosquito control measures only in 1877 villages in the second phase of mosquito spraying

As per the instructions of panchayat raj minister Ch Ayyanna Patrudu the district authorities have decided to form special teams comprising panchayat secretaries anganwadi workers and health workers to create awareness on malaria and viral fevers among tribal population These special teams will create awareness on the precautionary measures and help the tribals get admitted in hospital for immediate healthcare
