[Title] => DOH reiterates warning vs dengue
[Summary] => The Department of Health (DOH) reiterated yesterday its warning against dengue, saying that possible breeding sites of dengue-causing mosquitoes must be eliminated.
In an advisory, the DOH asked the public should cover and clean all water containers, and even flower vases, at least once a week because they could serve as breeding ground for aedes aegypti mosquitoes.
DOH noted that even gutters should be cleared of debris and leaves while used tires and tin cans should be discarded because water could build up there.

[Title] => Dengue alert
[Summary] =>
The Department of Health has issued its Weekly Surveillance Report that shows dengue remains number two on the list of the most prevalent diseases in the country. The Department of Education promptly raised an alert against dengue hemorrhagic fever in all schools nationwide. Dengue fever is an infectious disease carried by mosquitoes and caused by any of four related dengue viruses. This disease used to be called "break-bone" fever because it sometimes causes severe joint and muscle pain that feels like bones are breaking, hence the name.

[Title] => Dengue: The dangerous Asian tiger, yellow fever mosquitoes
[Summary] => Asian tiger and yellow fever mosquitoes are existing mainly because of us. We are the ones who are giving a chance for the mosquitoes to exist. For example, in barangays where the inhabitants do not have regular supply of water, they store water in metal drums and plastic containers without any cover. They do not know the principle that, if the mosquitoes could not find water, they are not able to lay eggs, which means no mosquitoes, no dengue illness and no death will occur.
