Seasonal Diseases Increase 40% in Kabul: Physicians


Doctors at Ibn Sina Hospital in Kabul report a 40% rise in seasonal illnesses.

 According to some doctors, the primary reasons for the rise in seasonal ailments in the capital are the warming of the weather, the consumption of spoiled food, and unclean water.

 "The majority of patients who visit us today are mostly contaminated patients,” said Gulab Gul Zadran, head of Ibn Sina Hospital.

 "Up to 400 patients visit each day, 30 to 40% of whom are seasonal patients. Some cases do not need to be hospitalized, they are recorded and are treated,” said Hafez Mohammad Islam, head physician of Ibn Sina Hospital.
