The Malay
Municipal Health Office (MHO) will not get tired of informing and reminding that
nothing will change or the only thing that could actually help to prevent
dengue is to clean our surroundings.
This is what
Municipal Health Officer Dr. Adrian Salaver had clarified as a response to the alarming
cases of dengue not only in Caticlan but as well as other places.
That is why,
through a campaign, they are pressing on this matter, reminding the public that
the cooperation of the whole community is needed in this kind of problem.
According to
him it is not just the MHO that should take action, as it would be better if
the whole community and the barangay officials would also take the initiative.
For instance,
he said, with cleaning of surroundings, those who are not doing their part
should be reported to the Barangay so that the officials will be responsible in
dealing with them.
As the
mosquitoes, as a vector, are transferring from one place to another, it would
be useless if a single household would clean their area, while their neighbors won’t
actually do their part.
