***Philippines: Death Toll From Dengue Rises To 501!!***
MANILA, Philippines – Climate change could be one of the reasons behind the alarming rise in the number of dengue cases in the country, a health official said Saturday.

Dr. Eric Tayag, head of the Department of Health’s (DOH) National Epidemiology Center, said mosquitoes carrying the dengue virus now have more areas to breed.

The DOH has recorded 69,594 dengue cases across the country from January to August 28 this year.

It is the largest number of dengue cases in a single year, the DOH said.

Tayag told radio dzMM that 501 people, mostly children, have died from the illness. In 2009, there were 369 deaths.

Is most common in countries with tropical weather conditions, and it's caused by mosquito bites.
