A day after the World Health Organisation (WHO) reported the first three “laboratory-confirmed cases of Zika virus disease” in India — all from Ahmedabad, the Gujarat government Sunday said there was no need for a specific campaign to prevent spread of the virus in the city. The government also cited a “mistake” by the WHO in reporting the first case, and noted that the patients belonged to separate localities. At a press meet, state chief secretary J N Singh said the first positive case was reported in November 2016 and not in February 2016, as stated by WHO. He also said all the three cases were not from Bapunagar — the third patient belonged to Gopalnagar.
