Synopsis :

Episode 4 - The War Room
What's the science behind the fight against dengue?

Ep 4 summary:
A patient at a neighbourhood clinic is suspected of having dengue. His blood sample goes to the Environmental Health Institute (EHI) - the department in the NEA that has been working behind the scenes to stem the dengue outbreak. We dissect what the EHI does.

About the series:
The Silent War is an 8-episode reality web series about Singapore's efforts to control the dengue outbreak in 2013. Join the National Environment Agency's officers as they go house-to-house, indoors and outdoors, employing different strategies, to combat the dengue virus' vector - the Aedes mosquito.
