Mirtha Legrand, host of El Trece, spoke about the dengue epidemic on Saturday night. She expressed her concern about the spread of the disease and demanded more official action.
Mirtha was also sad about the wave of layoffs in the public sphere and poverty in the country. The National Ministry of Health already counts 119 fatalities from the disease so far in 2024.. If the look by "season" is included - the period between week 31 of 2023 and week 12 of 2024 - the number of deaths from dengUE increases to 129.
