Thanks.  I am glad to see that he was successfully treated but it is a shame that the article did not highlight the fact that the disease can also be contracted in India! In fact there are plenty of case reports from Hyderabad, although not all of these included details about the patient’s place of residence.

Rightly said, David.
A very casual approach indeed as a reporter especially when all the information is just a button away. I tried to contact her and am still waiting for her reply.
