Kerala Health Dpt directs measures against dengue spread Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala: The Health Department of Kerala has directed that preventive and control measures against the possible spread of dengue fever be intensified due to intermittent summer showers. The directions regarding this were given at the monthly meeting of State Medical Officers. Pre-monsoon cleaning activities need to be taken up in a time-bound manner. Special committees will be set up in all districts under the district medical officers to assess the progress of these activities. Source reduction activities will have to be taken up intensely to reduce the incidence of dengue, health officials said. “Coordinated activities of local bodies, other departments, and the public to prevent water stagnation in and around homes and offices alone can reduce the incidence of dengue fever. Health workers should intensify preventive measures in areas designated as hotspots for dengue,” a health official stated.
