Two children of the same family died of malaria in Phano Goth village near Khairpur city, Sindh, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

The deceased had been identified as five-year-old Hussain and six-year-old Fahad.

Citizens are worried, for the medicines for malaria and other diseases have gone scarce in the city and hospitals.

Besides shortage of medicines, they are also faced with attacks from snakes that are now roaming around the flood-hit areas.

Meanwhile, a seven-year-old child died after being bitten by a snake in Sahnal Shah village, taking the tally to eight in Qubo Saeed Khan tehsil, Shahdadkot.
