<br/><br/> Infectious diseases are the leading cause of morbidity in infants and children. The incidences of certain infections are pneumonia, bronchitis, influenza, hepatitis, sepsis, tuberculosis, meningitis, malaria, measles, typhoid fever, leptospirosis, bacterial diarrhea, chicken pox etc. And one of the latest leading dreaded sicknesses here in the Philippines is dengue fever. Last 2009 the Philippines was the second-worst hit by dengue fever, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Some 7,700 cases were recorded, of which 70 people mostly children died as a result. "Dengue is now one of the leading three causes of deaths among children in Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam," says Dr. Allan Schapira, an epidemiologist working at the WHO regional office in Manila.
