Chikungunya hits 15 provinces, says gov’t

[geovalin]

Ministry of Health spokeswoman Or Vandine said on Thursday that the chikungunya outbreak in the Kingdom has spread to 15 provinces. Some 1,700 people are now suspected to have the disease.

 

Vandine urged people to prevent its further spread by eliminating shelters for the Aedes aegypti mosquitoes which are attracted to standing water and breed anywhere water collects.

 

She told The Post that the National Dengue Control Programme of the National Centre of Parasitology, Entomology and Malaria Control published a report on Wednesday revealing the number of suspected cases. She said the numbers varied greatly in each province.

Government place across the road from my home, at least a thousand litres of standing water beneath it.

 

Nuttin is done, year after year. ????

Any form of concerted effort just seems to fall on deaf ears.
