A man is carefully collecting date palm juice from a plastic container on the outskirts of Sylhet city, Bangladesh, on a winter morning, December 29, 2023. Doctors and the Health Department are advising people to be very careful about drinking raw date juice. The Institute of Epidemiology, Disease Control and Research (IEDCR) has reported that people are dying from the Nipah virus after consuming raw date juice. In Bangladesh, the Nipah virus is primarily spread by bats, and the risk of contracting this virus is high from December to April. The virus can be transmitted through bat saliva or feces in the sap when bats hang on palm trees to collect sap. Many people, including children, have been infected by eating fruits partially eaten by bats. Consuming the juice raw has led to infections. The IEDCR director has stated that 71 percent of people infected with the Nipah virus die. This year, 2023, 10 people have already died from the Nipah virus. Consequently, on December 14, 2023, the Department of Health issued a warning to avoid consuming raw date juice to prevent the spread of the Nipah virus. Currently, children and teenagers are more affected.

Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes and other insect vectors continue to place a critical burden on the world's poor, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas including countries in the South-East Asia Region. Some pockets in Nadia, North 24 Parganas and Hooghly have seen a sudden rise in cases, and at least five people in Kolkata have died due to dengue in the last week. According to World Health Organization (WHO), Vector-borne diseases account for more than 17% of all infectious diseases, causing more than 700 000 deaths annually. They can be caused by parasites, bacteria or viruses. Malaria parasitic infection transmitted by Anopheline mosquitoes causes an estimated 219 million cases globally, and results in more than 400,000 deaths every year. Most of the deaths occur in children under the age of 5 years. Dengue viral infection is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. More than 3.9 billion people in over 129 countries are at risk of contracting dengue, with an estimated 96 million symptomatic cases and an estimated 40,000 deaths every year. Other viral diseases transmitted by vectors include chikungunya fever, Zika virus fever, yellow fever, West Nile fever, Japanese encephalitis. Mosquito larval or larvae sampling is underway by a voluntary organization at Tehatta, West Bengal; India on 31/07/2023.
