Last year was an unusual one for the Dhaka Hospital. While in normal years, the Hospital sees two major periods of increased patient numbers-just before the monsoon starts and just after it ends-in 2007 we saw a mild pre-monsoon season followed by extremely high patient numbers during and immediately following the August floods. Finally, in October, we again saw increasing patient numbers associated with Cyclone Sidr. No one can say what this year will bring but the current increased patient numbers are consistent with the typical pre-monsoon increase in diarrhoeal disease patients, indicating we may see the "double peak" common in previous years.
