Khairul Alam: Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) has said to take the initiative for research and development on the dengue vaccine.
Vice-Chancellor Sharfuddin Ahmed also asked the Virology Department of the University to start work in this regard soon.
At that time the Vice Chancellor had said that the present situation is because we are not able to deal with dengue in our country throughout the year.
Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University is the best place to do any work, research in health care. Here we will do research on dengue.
BSMMU doctors will also work shoulder-to-shoulder with the Dengue Prevention Committee.
Mr. Sharfuddin said that the initiative to develop a social movement is nice. That’s why we all have to make people aware by getting on the streets. Let everyone know that now the pattern of dengue has changed.
Vice-Chancellor also said that water should not be allowed to accumulate anywhere in the house, on the roof, or in flower tubs.
The commode should be covered after use. Dhaka North City Corporation will apply BTI from tomorrow to destroy the larvae of the Aedes mosquito. It’s working great in Singapore, hope it works here too.
Instead of sitting at home in case of fever, the Vice-Chancellor advised to get the NS1 (NS1) test done immediately. He said, no medicine can be taken without the advice of a doctor. Drink plenty of fluids. Students should wear full pants, full sleeve clothes, there will be a shirt and shoes and socks in the school.
