As the dengue death toll rises to more than 200 with hospitals struggling to cope with the surge in cases, health officials have intensified various campaigns to combat the deadly disease. Joining them in one such campaign are about 100 prisoners from the Welikada Prison. They are seen here taking part in a cleaning and clearing operation in Colombo’s Torrington area.
