Extract
It is impossible to eradicate Dengue, but control of the disease is quite possible. Regular control of breeding places in the household, school and community by the participation of local people and local authority are the corner stones which we need to advocate, support and maintain all year round. In the outbreak situation, an early detection, immediate investigation to identify the source and rapid response by destroying larvae in all breeding places is a must. Doing this provides the opportunity to minimize the number of cases and deaths from Dengue. Let’s stop the outbreak of Dengue from going on and on!
