More than whether Nipah has been confirmed or not, the question that must be posed is "Should we fear Nipah?". Last year we saw the exemplary manner in which Kerala fought and defeated the disease. This time both the state and district administrations are well prepared with sufficient protocol and medical infrastructure in place. Currently investigation is under way to confirm the Nipah and to trace the path travelled by the person suspected of Nipah. We need not succumb to fear but ought to exercise caution. A close inspection by upfrontstories.
