A quantitative research study was aimed to evaluate the knowledge regarding control and prevention of dengue fever among high school students. The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge regarding control and prevention of dengue fever among high school students. To find out the association between knowledge scores on control and prevention of dengue fever among high school students and selected demographic variables. The study was undertaken with 100 samples. Convenience sampling was used. The research design was non-experimental descriptive survey design. Structured knowledge questionnaire was used for collecting the data. The data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The study findings show, that 32% of students are having poor knowledge and 54% are having average level of knowledge and 14% had good knowledge regarding control and prevention of dengue fever. Mean value is 8.67, standard deviation 3.48 and median is 8. The mean percentage of knowledge scores is 43.35. The χ2 value showing no association of knowledge with selected demographic variables. Results also revealed that there was no significant association between knowledge scores and socio demographic variables....

The nature of the evidence required means it’s going to be hard to track down the animal source and also difficult to completely rule out the facility in question, the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). Conspiracy theorists have suggested that the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 is manmade leaked from the Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory that is in the area where the pandemic originated. To counter these researchers with Scripps Research and other institutions around the globe published a study in the journal Nature Medicine debunking the theory after an analysis of the genome sequence of SARS-CoV-2. Despite the numerous recent articles published in the literature, many controversies still persist both among healthcare professionals and common people. In this review article different origin of the coronavirus is dealt with....
