BBC’s dengue reports
10 Nov 2009 Comments (0)The BBC website has a short video report on dengue fever featuring images of insecticide spraying in Jakarta and brief expert comment.
The report focuses on the role of climate change in the increase of dengue case numbers. There is no discussion of the role played by the increasing number of people living in poor quality urban environments. A BBC video report from Manilla a few weeks ago did mention this issue and also the growth of international travel.
