New Delhi: As the dengue cases rise in the National Capital, doctors warn all pregnant women to be extra cautious as they are more vulnerable to catching the virus. The virus can prove fatal for not only the mother but also for the unborn baby. Doctors advise all the expected mothers to take precautions to keep themselves and their unborns safe. The first thing is they all must use mosquito repellent. The second important step is they must wear full sleeve shirts, and pants while stepping out of their house. Mosquitoes are active during dawn and dusk so they should avoid stepping out at these hours. They must stay indoors with screened windows.
