fever in Multan Punjab, Pakistan while taking into account the important role of government
policies and other variables. The goal of this study is to examine the awareness of
students in Multan, Pakistan on malaria and dengue. This study is based on a quantitative
approach of secondary evidence from scientific journals and questionnaire surveys. It is
also based on observational evidence gathered in Multan Punjab Pakistan, in a field study.
The survey with school children, teachers and healthcare professionals were both formal
and semi-structuralize. Studies have found that malaria and dengue mainly affect children’s
schooling through their absence, but can also induce brain loss and cognitive disability. In
questionnaires, students were seen to have different understanding of the illness, but also
to be able to serve as agents of health reform only through teachers. A sample size of 500
respondents has been selected from different colleges of district Multan Punjab, Pakistan.
Correlation technique is used for the data analysis. According to our results it is concluded
that the students at college level are aware of malaria and dengue diseases, but they are
not capable of engaging and serving as agents for health reform. On the basis of results it is
recommended that students must teach about epidemics diseases regarding how to handle
these diseases.
