Default Higher than normal rate of DHF in the Mae Hong Son hills

Just in case anyone is planning on heading to the hills in the Chiang Mai /
Mae Hong Son region -

There is a higher than normal instance of Dengue Haemorragic Fever at the
moment, so make sure you take a good mosquito repellent and use it (note -
the infectious mozzies attack during the day, so don't think you only need
it at night).

My wife reports that Pai hospital is treating quite a few patients, and
there is a programme of 'dusting' homes and offices around town.
