In todays blog I wish to give you some aspects of living Dengue free. I have obtained some details from webMD.com in setting up of this blog.Since I am not a medical man , I have to learn things from a doctor and gather information from Internet.
I live in an Island called Sri Lanka which has been the topic during the past few months for Terrorism and how the Government managed to vipe out it.
My intention, today, is to brief my readers about the dengue fever and how to live dengue free in this island or elsewhere in the world. I want to analysis how this spread in the country.They breed and develop in almost new water which are left out for days by the public. Typically left out Coconut half,left out tins,cans, tyres and some vegetation are responsible for collecting water in them during the rains. Where do you find them ? are they in your garden? no! .They all are in collected garbage by the authorities for dispatching and where non dispatched garbage by the authorities in municipal,urban areas are responsible for assisting breeding in the respective local body areas. Not only these garbage but also the blocked culverts and uncleaned drains are the main reasons for assisting breeding mosquitoes. In the area where I live all the people clean their gardens bu they find lot of mosquitoes, the reason for this is due to blockade of water in the culverts and drains which are maintained by the local bodies.
Few weeks back, I saw a pageant of people holding posters traveled from their office to main road and elsewhere passing such water blocked culverts and drains and no body was able to convince or show the members of the organizers where and who is responsible for breeding.
I saw few banners in front of MOH office,Local Body office and some areas where they are displayed for public to remind but there are banners on top of them showing some advertisements of tution and politicians.
The local authorities should not blame public for breeding mosquitoes.Instead they should blame themselves for not transporting garbage, not cleaning drains,culverts , not even checking the waterways in their territories.The mosquitoes breed at such place and very rarely you find a place that also in shanty areas where large number of people live in a small area with inadequate sanitary facilities.
I will provide the photos of some places.
