Story
Updates (3)

With death of 10 more children, the toll mounted to 111 on Sunday morning due to suspected Acute
Encephalitis Syndrome (AES) that has gripped
Muzaffarpur and the adjoining districts in
Bihar.
Most of the casualties are between the age group of 1-10.
There is scarcity of fund and still 350 children are suffering from the same and even the supply of medicine is not appropriate to tackle the situation.
The children showed symptoms of acute encephalitis syndrome (AES), a neurological illness that involves inflammation of the brain. AES is colloquially known as "chamki bukhar" (chamki = seizure).

The symptons include high fever, vomiting, losing consciousness and seizures. The deaths have been reported from Sri Krishna Medical College and Hospital and Kejriwal Hospital.

Your small contributions can help hospital to buy medicine as well as proper machinary so that the children can be saved in future.

Dear Supporters,

Here's a quick update:

The disease has spread to Dariyapur village. 5 children died from AES in panchayat of Kanti block. DM of Muzaffarpur organized an event called Chaupal to create awareness on AES in this village. Such events need to be organized every year before the peak summer season to prevent AES. Doctors for You work has been recognized by all the officials and we distributed Glucon D powder & Biscuits among children to create awareness about the importance of preventing Hypoglycaemia at Night. We thanks all our donors and partners for supporting us over the last 10days to keep up work up & running uninterrupted.DFY will soon start community-based malnutrition management program at Muzaffarpur to prevent such incidents in the future.

Please do support our AES response work and request others to support us too.
