The changing weather has led to a surge in illnesses. Viral fever, accompanied by aches in hands and feet, is prevalent. Cases of vomiting, diarrhoea, jaundice, and dehydration are also increasing in hospitals. The paediatric ward of JAH is seeing a significant rise in child admissions, with approximately 30% of outpatients daily presenting with these symptoms. Some children require hospitalisation, with those under five years of age being the most affected. Jaundice is reported among older children (above five years).

Recovery Time Extended to Five Days

Recovery from fever and related ailments is taking more than five days. People consuming outside food during the hot weather are experiencing health consequences. Jaundice is also affecting children older than five years.

Caution Advised

Given the fluctuating weather, extra caution is advised, especially for young children. Parents should seek medical advice if their children experience any health problems.
