Treatment failure

For first 4 cases Work up of TB should be done.
For last case work up for fever should be done like complete ENT examination Urine routine examination Blood culture and sensitivity.Chest x-ray typhoid and malaraia and hepatitis work up should be done and should be treated appropriately.
