As per the National Institute of Virology, Pune, Nipah Virus is the sole cause of these three deaths. Rajiv Sadanandan, Kerala’s health secretary, has assured that the government has started its preparation towards fewer deaths and that people should not panic.

Greywater is wastewater from non-toilet plumbing fixtures such as showers, basins and taps. Blackwater is water that has been mixed with waste from the toilet. Because of th...

Tips to ensure pure drinking water

Drinking contaminated water is the number one cause of illness and with the rise in the number of cases of monsoon diseases like cholera and typhoid, it is highly essential that you ensure you are drinking only pure water. During monsoons, the chances of contracting these diseases are higher as water gets contaminated due to water logging, unsanitary conditions, open sewage etc. Eating or drinking unhygienic food and water can transmit the virus easily into your system in turn making you sick. While basics like washing your hands properly before you eat and eating home-cooked meals to avoid infections are important, here are some tips to ensure you are drinking pure, clean water. The very first thing to keep in mind is to drink water that is boiled and filtered. Do not drink tap water as it isn’t potable (safe for drinking). When you go out, carry water from home instead of drinking outside water as you do not know if it is pure or not. If someone is ill...
