JAKARTA - Three residents in the settlement of RT 04/02 Cilangkap, Cipayung, East Jakarta were exposed to dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Two of the residents exposed to DHF were underage, while one was an adult.

Anticipating further exposure to dengue fever that haunts residents, Cilangkap Village Head Nasir Sugiar said his party was doing fogging to deal with dengue cases in his area.

There were three locations and seven cases of dengue fever. Namely, in RT 05/01 there were two cases, RT 06/03 two cases and RT 04/02 three cases. All of them were treated at the hospital and now they have returned to their respective homes.

"In order to avoid a spike in dengue cases, we urge residents to improve PHBS. Then make each one of them a larva monitoring interpreter in their own home. In this way, God willing, dengue cases can be suppressed as early as possible," said Nasir, Monday, December 3.

He also appealed to Jumantik cadres to increase PSN activities with local RT/RW administrators. Then do 3M (drain, bury and recycle).

Fogging was carried out by officers using a fumigation device in residential areas located on Jl Waru, Jl Waru I, Waru II, Jl Basuki, Jl Giri Kencana and Jl Raya Cilangkap. The targets are vacant land, front yards of residents' houses, waterways, the front area of a number of places of business.

Secretary of RW 02 Cilangkap, Misran Arief, said the fogging was carried out following three residents who were infected with dengue last week.

Fogging was carried out by the Fogging Task Force at the Cipayung District Health Center assisted by RT/RW administrators and TP PKK cadres and local dasawisma.

"Fogging was carried out following three of our residents who were affected by dengue," he said.

Misran hopes that residents will increase their awareness of cases of dengue fever, given the occurrence of transitions, changes in weather from the rainy season to the dry season.
