The districts reporting were Dili, Ambeno, Ermera, Liquica and Covalina. The disease surveillance team visited Ermera on 17 th November, and managed to find one of these children. The case turned out to be a chronic neurological problem unrelated to polio. The case numbers in Dili have dropped and cases are now being seen elsewhere, coinciding with the outward movement of returnees from Dili to other areas two weeks ago. There were no other similar cases in the area.
Dengue fever continues to be a concern.
