JAKARTA: The Fatmawati Hospital in South Jakarta said it treated 119 dengue fever patients in the first week of February.
Although the figure was slightly lower than the 130 patients recorded in the first week of January, the hospital said it had prepared more medicine and blood supply to anticipate mounting dengue fever cases.
"We have prepared sufficient drugs should more dengue fever patients arrive, but we hope it won't happen," Atom Kadam, the head of public relations at the hospital, told beritajakarta.com.
In January, the hospital treated 427 dengue fever patients. -JP
