00:00Dengue cases rose to almost 80,000 in the first six months of 2024.

00:10The Department of Health is in charge.

00:12More than 200 people were infected.

00:15Tips against dengue, especially now that it's raining

00:18and it's flooding the country.

00:20With the help of Mackie Pulido.

00:22Many people were affected by the larvae traps in the so-called dengue hotspot of Barangay Rojas District, Quezon City.

00:33Because of that, cleanup drives and defogging will be followed in the area.

00:36There is no longer a time for dengue, so their larvae trapping is almost every month.

00:41It will only get worse now that it's raining.

00:44I'm worried, especially now that it's raining.

00:48I hope that our continuous monitoring in the area will help us.

00:55The Department of Health hopes that all LGUs will be active in monitoring.

01:01The DOH is in charge of increasing dengue cases by 10% within a few weeks.

01:07From more than 5,000 cases in May 5 to 18, it rose to more than 6,000 from May 19 to June 1.

01:14Because it's flooded, it's expected to rain more this year.

01:17It's possible that the total number of dengue cases in the country will increase,

01:21to almost 80,000 from January to June 15.

01:25That's 15% higher than the same time last year.

01:29Our local government units are our number one partners

01:34because public health is a community effort, not a hospital.

01:40When it's a hospital, it's almost the end when our disease is spread.

01:43But the DOH also said that the fight against dengue will start with cleaning their own homes and vaccination.

01:49They used to say that for there to be no dengue, there should be no eggs in the nest.

01:55That's why the first warning here is to make sure that there are no things or items that can collect water,

02:02just like these bottles.

02:04It should not be embedded outside the house and it should be made sure that there is no water inside.

02:11The pressure should be on the LGUs.

02:14But I also hope that every family will understand that they have a responsibility.

02:21That's why the DOH is reviving its long-standing campaign, 4S Contra Dengue.

02:27The first here is to search and destroy or clean all the possible eggs of the nest.

02:32This is a call to Gene, one of the residents of the dengue hotspots of Barangay Rojas District.

02:37We don't stock water bottles or buckets that can be used to store water when it rains.

02:45Those who don't use it should throw it away.

02:47For those who have a cover, it's okay.

02:49For GMA Integrated News, Macky Pulido, for Tutok Tlaloc, 24 Hours.
