No more elections are sheduled of any type soon. So,no action could be expected from the authorities now. The officials will be blamed for everything.

It is sad to note that the government allocated so much of money for defence depite there is no war now but allowed meagre amounts for health and education compared to defence.We need to improve on this to build a healthy(physically and mentally) SL community to develop lanka.Health helps people strengthen physically while education strengthens them mentally.

No action against Dengu. Because government spent all the money for IIFA and needs more money from tax payers to invite Indian cinema starts and host parties for them.

Sad story, not bcoz she is a doctor, bcoz of another life (Doc's don’t care other patients life when they do their personal demands/Strikes).

The blame should go to the health ministry and the Department. I have personally experience in this matter. I had dengue some times a ago, bcoz of their negligence.

I think as a society we have gotten used to hearing news like this and we don't care any more.Our attitude has changed that we are only concerned when it happens to one of our family members.
There is no one to take responsibility and people are not bothered about this either.
Shame on us!! Hopefully one day Sri Lankans will care about each other to rally against what is actually important.

No need any other example to know the ineffciency of GOV. These are the GOV can do
1. Implement a national Sramadana Campaign
2. Find out where the bacteria they have been speaking of is 3. Allocate money to universities and MRI for dengue research
4.Increase the facilities in hospitals
5. People shoud not consider a dead as a individual case coz we are heading towards the bright future and blank future

Doctor dies of dengue? Does it say something about our medical education, inter alia?

This lady was one of the most kind persons that you could ever meet. She was God fearing and was praying for many in additon to her duties as a Doctor. But Dengue mosquito does not consider goodness of a person. I think it is futile for us to believe in the Health authorities to do a lot to save the lives of poor people. Cannot the house holders take this matter as a national important matter and form some grass root level commitees and work and let the Politicians play their games of Fasting etc;

True, lot of money is allocated for the programme but they are used for the requirements of culprits who enjoy having lavish food and drinks and meetings. Mosquitoes know this trick and they too take sides as they fly without any obstacles due to these gon culprits. They know, that animal rights are protected but not the human rights. I feel sad, as they do not bite the culprits to save the good human beings who do a service to the country. So, the mosquitoes also had taken bribes.......su
