The Angkor Hospital for Children (AHC) has expressed its concerns over an increase in severe dengue cases in Siem Reap province. AHC admitted 265 children infected with the virus in the past two months alone, which is more than all of last year, according to an AHC statement issued on Friday.

 

“Due to an increased need for inpatient care, some patients are on extra mattresses in the hospital’s halls. AHC welcomes donations and support for dengue patients,” the hospital said.

 

AHC director Dr Claudia Turner told The Post on Sunday that every day more and more children are being infected by the dengue virus and need to be sent to the hospital. Severe dengue cases have been increasing as well, which has caused concern.
