At least 38 more people have died in Bangladesh, including two from water-borne diseases, raising the death toll in the low-lying country's worst floods in recent years to nearly 500. More than 53,000 people have contracted diarrhoea in Bangladesh, mostly caused by eating stale food and drinking impure water. A field hospital has been opened in the capital, Dhaka, to treat diarrhoea patients.
