At least four people have died of diarrhea in some villages of Dhading district in central Nepal, where about 60 people are suffering from the ailment in the past days, the national news agency RSS reported on Saturday.
According to the news agency RSS Saturday's report, District Health Office, Dhading has sent a medical team to the villages, some 50 km south of Kathmandu, that could be reached after two-day's walk from the office.
Diarrhea can cause dehydration, which means the body lacks enough fluid to function properly. Dehydration is particularly dangerous in children and older people, and it must be treated promptly to avoid serious health problems.
