Rainy season brings lot of
fun, greenery and cool climate with it.
However, it is also the
season that Dengue Fever cases increases.
With this, schools are
preparing for this scenario.
Biological Science high
school teacher, Mr. Fernando Delos Reyes, said in an interview yesterday that
the Lamberto Tirol National High School in Yapak, is habitually checking their
drainage area and places where water usually deposits.
This is the primary method
of controlling the habitat or breeding places of Aedes aegypti mosquito.
Advisers particularly
science teachers are also strictly monitoring “waste management’ and safety
precaution in their school.
Delos Reyes added that
aside from everyday cleaners they are closely checking that students are
properly disposing their garbage in the assigned area.
Dengue is a mosquito-borne
viral infection causing a severe flu-like illness and, sometimes causing a
potentially lethal complication called severe dengue.
