Dirty water has struck again.
This time, it is at the Girls’ Hostel of the Maulana Azad Medical College (MAMC) in the Capital where 53 medical students have reportedly contracted Hepatitis A after consuming contaminated water, and possibly food.
While doctors from the community medicine department and the National Institute of Communicable Diseases (NICD) have gone into action to tackle the situation, students alleged the college authorities had turned a blind eye to repeated complaints about “miserable” water quality.
With Hepatitis A looming large, students have been asked to report any form of illness that may indicate contracting the virus
