13-Year-Old Boy Is Latest Dengue Victim; Delhi Toll 47
A 13-year-old boy died of dengue fever here Wednesday, taking the toll from mosquito-borne disease to 47 in the Indian capital//, even as officials maintained that the number of cases had dropped considerably.
Ashish, a resident of Kasganj in Uttar Pradesh, died at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS). He had been admitted to the hospital Oct 16 in a critical condition.

There was little change in the number of new cases reported in various hospitals with 62 fresh cases being admitted since Tuesday, taking the total number of patients to 2,240.
In AIIMS, the hospital that has borne the brunt of the dengue cases, 43 new cases were reported Wednesday taking the number of patients being treated to 184.
"We have 30 patients under observation. Earlier, we used to have around 200 people under observation everyday," said Sharma.
Across the country, the total dengue cases went up to 7,749 and the total deaths to 128, since the disease broke out in a major way in early September.
According to health officials, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, West Bengal, Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh continued to report fresh dengue cases.
