So far this year, a total of 2,464 dengue notifications have been reported, of which 9 are cases of the disease from six departments, reveals the updated Arbovirosis Surveillance report. These are the serotypes, DEN1 (identified in Asunción, Pedro Juan Caballero and Caaguazú) and DEN2 (located in Central, Presidente Hayes and Guairá).

So far, there are no confirmed or probable cases of chikungunya or Zika.

Partial data shows a significant decline in notifications of 28% compared to the previous week, going from 189 to 136. The average number of notifications in the last three weeks is 165, according to the Health Surveillance report.

46% of the suspicious notifications are concentrated in the Central department and in Asunción. Boquerón is the only department that has cut off the circulation of the virus.

The population is urged to continue with prevention actions, through the daily elimination of potential mosquito breeding sites and the application of personal protection barriers: use of repellent outdoors, mosquito nets for sleeping, and installation of metallic mesh on windows and doors.

Likewise, it is important to inspect the patio and the interior of the house and discard any disused object that accumulates water. Those useless objects that cannot be disposed of, such as household appliances, tires or others, must be placed under a roof or covered, in order to avoid the accumulation of water. And cover tanks and drums with water that will be used.

Changing the water in the animal drinking fountain and vases daily, after cleaning with a brush, water and soap, in order to eliminate possible eggs that have remained attached to the walls of the container, is another recommendation to deal with arboviruses .
