mtls2005 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 (I didn't know news articles are banned in the Health sub-forum, sorry.) Melioidosis: Thailand's unknown deadly disease Thailand's third most-deadly infectious disease kills 40 percent of those infected, but very few have ever heard of it. Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand - By the time Bunsri Mamak, 50, arrived at Sappasit Prasong Hospital in Ubon Ratchathani city in Thailand's northeast, he was delirious and a very sick man. He had spent several weeks visiting local clinics and hospitals trying to find out what was wrong with him when he first developed the symptoms - high fever and pain in his legs. The doctors he visited failed to diagnose his illness and provide the necessary treatment. http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/features/2016/07/melioidosis-thailand-unknown-deadly-disease-160719080325144.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
