The general manager of Ruby hospital, Subhasish Dutta, said there had been fewer dengue patients last month. An AMRI official said the average daily count of dengue patients at Salt Lake unit was 10 in September. Doctors and experts blamed the spurt in dengue cases on the weather. Dengue cases are being reported in the out-patient clinic as well,” said Apurba Ghosh, the director of the institute.
