Hi there,
In Rio de Janeiro state of Brazil, The number of deaths caused by dengue is touching 100 while the number of people infected has surpassed 75,000, more than the total number last year, signaling a serious year for the government in fighting the epidemic.
I read this article somewhere and thought it could be of concern for those planning for Rio.
Also Brazil's Health Ministry warned that 16 of the country's 27 states are at the risk of an outbreak of dengue fever in 2009.
So pals take care in Rio but also enjoy the live city.
