The Rural Health
Unit in Boracay has warned the public about the increase of dengue cases in the
country.
According to
Malay Municipal Health Officer Dr. Adrian Salaver, they already sent a notice
to the Baranggays in the municipality.
The letter is a
reminder for the community to be aware of the mentioned disease this rainy
season.
Salaver added
that even without recorded cases of dengue in Boracay and Malay, the public
still, should take precautionary measures.
He also noted
how the crowd comes in and out of the island that makes it difficult for them
to monitor any dengue carrier, and is the reason of its spread.
Meanwhile, he
stressed out that even if they won’t be releasing any warnings regarding the
disease, the public, particularly those who are leaving near a stream and the
likes or any potential breeding area of mosquitoes, should be vigilant enough.
