WITH more than 80 deaths due to dengue, the Health Ministry should be more pro-active in battling the disease. Recently, I was warded for dengue and I would like to share some of the problems I faced during my treatment period.
Firstly, I went to a private clinic for the fever and I was given a jab and was charged almost RM100. The next day when the fever was accompanied with body ache, I insisted the medical officer in the clinic conduct a blood test for dengue (nowadays some clinics have a special kit to do it).
