As always I look up to Crof at H5N1 whenever it comes to his insightful writing. This time his take on the dengue situation in Honduras :
" This looks bad. Via La Prensa.hn. Doctors: Dengue deaths have reached 50. This looks like a case for the Pan American Health Organization, if not for WHO itself. This morning the total was supposed to be 19. Excerpt, with my translation :
The real total of dengue death may not be what Health authorities say it is.
Doctors in the School Hospital, who asked not to be identified to avoid reprisals, confirmed yesterday that the Secretariat of Health "is hiding data," and say that the total of dengue deaths is 50, not the 19 given by health authorities.
These assertions, made over news websites and radio stations, launched a new controversy that was opposed by Health Vice-Minister Javier Pastor."
Please read the whole article at Crof's.
