Dengue Outbreak and Health Crisis

Sri Lanka is experiencing a dengue outbreak with health authorities issuing urgent warnings and notices. The Health Minister has warned that dengue risk will persist for the next three weeks, and hospitals are dealing with increased cases.

Three weeks of dengue risk? That's just long enough for everyone to forget about the warning, get bitten, and then act absolutely shocked when they're burning up like a rotisserie chicken. Meanwhile, Lady Ridgeway Hospital's probably got a whiteboard that just says "DENGUE: YES" at this point.
