It is reported that the Association of Public Health Inspectors has announced that there is a risk of the spread of rat fever due to the current dry weather conditions.
Its chairman Upul Rohana says that bathing and fishing in places with very little water can lead to these diseases, and bathing in places with minimal water has also raised the risk of skin diseases and diarrhea.
The Union of Public Health Inspectors further mentions that they are closely monitoring the places where drinking water is sold, and if drinking water obtained from other methods, drink water that has been boiled.
