  • INDIA: Reaching people at risk of malaria in remote areas of Chhattisgarh, March 2023 (101)
    Daymati is tested for malaria by health workers in Kadampara village as a part of malaria surveillance activities in Bastar district, Chhattisgarh. Members of the community with suspected cases of malaria receive a rapid diagnostic test (RDT), which allows for quick results within 15 to 30 minutes.  In recent years, India has made impressive gains in reducing its malaria burden, with cases dropping by more than 40% between 2015 and 2021. Most of the remaining cases are concentrated among tribal populations living in rural areas. This photo set describes efforts by local health workers to reach people at risk of malaria in remote areas of Chhattisgarh, a state that accounts for nearly one fifth of the country’s malaria burden.

  • BANGLADESH: Dengue Fever, September-October 2023 (75)
    Resma is treated for complications from dengue at Mugda Hospital in Dhaka, Bangladesh, on 20 September 2023. Since April 2023 Bangladesh has been experiencing its most severe outbreak of dengue on record. The outbreak is putting huge pressure on the health system.  The higher incidence of dengue is taking place in the context of an unusual episodic amount of rainfall, combined with high temperatures and high humidity, which have resulted in an increased mosquito population throughout Bangladesh.  WHO is supporting the authorities to strengthen surveillance, laboratory capacity, clinical management, vector control, risk communication and community engagement, and has trained doctors and deployed experts on the ground. WHO has also provided supplies to test for dengue and to support care for patients.  Read more : https://www.who.int/bangladesh/emergencies/dengue-update-2023Resma is treated for complications from dengue at Mugda Hospital in Dhaka, Bangladesh, on 20 September 2023.
