Dengue Awareness Rally
Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne infection that causes severe flu-like symptoms and can be fatal. Dengue fever is an infection caused by dengue viruses, of which there are four different serotypes known to infect humans.
Serotype refers to groups of microorganisms that are extremely closely related, but can be distinguished by having slightly different antigens (a foreign substance which causes the body to produce antibodies) or causing the body to produce slightly different antibodies. Dengue fever occurs in tropical and subtropical areas of the world.
Our college always gives much importance for health related activities. NSS students prepared various posters regarding Dengue virus and its mode of transmission to create the awareness among the village people. Also they cleaned some areas where the water is stagnant and source of dengue virus.
