Tawa-tawa Tea Makes Dengue Fever Less Alarming
The mortality rate of those who are suffering from dengue fever is increasing specially during rainy seasons here in the Philippines. Mosquitoes multiply fast in dumpy areas and Aedes mosquitoes-the dengue causing mosquitoes are of course growing in number as well.
Within the rural communities in the southern part of the Philippines, dengue fever is really alarming. This is not because people are uninformed on how to take care patients suffering from this kind of fever but because, in most cases, the disease is discovered in its later stage and immediate medication is of no avail. The fact that there are no vaccines and medicines yet for such disease, when the patient’s platelet count drops 30, then a blood transfusion is the alternative of getting back the lost platelet. Local doctors argue that suspected dengue patients should submit for a platelet count earlier especially when an on and off fever is experienced for several days for early diagnosis.

One of the most important thing for the community is the belief that dengue is not that alarming with the tawa-tawa weeds cropping everywhere in the locality.
