ICMR's Vector Control Research Centre in Puducherry has developed an eco-friendly technology using Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis to kill mosquitoes that cause dengue, chikungunya, zika and more.

Mosquirix, the malaria vaccine by GlaxoSmithKline has already been administered to over 8,00,000 children in 2.3 million doses.

Did you know that there over 3000 species of mosquitoes and only 6 per cent of them draw blood from humans?

With years of experience researching Malaria, Professor G Padmanaban is the right man to clarify why the anti-malarial Hydroxychloroquine is being pushed to the frontlines against COVID-19.

The pilot experiment was conducted over Miyapur Lake on March 28, where a drone equipped with bio herbicide sprayed the liquid all over the 16-acre expanse.

Here is some advice from doctors about the prevalent health hazards during summers and how you can avoid them, without missing out on the fun of being outdoors!

For the last two years, Dr Chittaranjan Jena and his team have been visiting interior villages of Odisha to provide healthcare support.

It seems almost impossible for an entire village which was previously infested by mosquitoes to be free of them within two breeding sessions. But Sansar did it!

It's no joke. Three FIRs have already been filed in Delhi!

Dengue and chikungunya need to be detected early, so treatment can start immediately.
