Due to Chhath holiday and fewer patients arriving for investigation, a large number of investigations could not be done on Monday. Only seven samples were tested in PMCH. Five dengue patients were found in this.

At the same time, in the investigation of 60 samples in NMCH, the report of 23 samples was found positive. The investigation did not take place due to the holiday in IGIMS. That’s why 54 dengue patients have been found in Patna. There are 26 patients from Patna in this. The number of dengue victims in Patna has gone up to 5377.

Dengue outbreak continues in some old areas especially in Bankipur, Azimabad and Pataliputra areas. 14 patients have been found in Bankipur and four in Azimabad.
