BALIKPAPAN - Balikpapan has recorded 610 cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) since the rainy season arrived. Even as many as two residents in South Balikpapan died.
Head of the Health Service (Kadinkes) dr Andi Sri Juliarty said, with this case record, his party again reminded and activated a program to prevent dengue fever. For example, mobilizing Jumantik Cadres and 3M movements.
Jumantik cadres or larva monitoring interpreters are volunteer officers in every neighborhood who are tasked with visiting people's homes or paying attention to their environment so that there is no place for aedes aegypti mosquitoes to breed.
Mosquitoes carrying dengue fever virus require stagnant clean water or water that is accommodated as a place to lay their eggs.
The female mosquito that can lay eggs must previously bite and suck the blood of people or animals to get protein so that their eggs can develop and when buried they can live into mosquitoes.
Therefore, jumantik cadres who are under the guidance of the Puskesmas will always remind residents not to let there be a puddle of clean water, or a clean water reservoir that is open so that it can become a place for mosquitoes to lay eggs.
“ If the bath tub is big or the drums are big so it can't be closed, it can be given abate solution, a solution that can kill mosquito larvae, &rdquo said; said M Yahya, Head of RT 24 Taman Sari in Balikpapan, Antara, Sunday, September 25.
The 3M movement is a simple movement that asks residents to drain, bury, and close water reservoirs. A bath must be drained and replaced frequently, as well as a place to drink pets, and a clean water area such as a barrel or bucket for drinking water, to be closed tightly.
The 3M movement is also almost always interpreted as batik work, mutual cooperation in cleaning the environment, either housing or work environment such as offices, schools, as well as public facilities.
He added, if there are environments that need to be given fogging or fumigation to kill mosquitoes, then his party will send officers to the environment.
However, fogging can only be given if according to epidemiological observations or the state of the spread of the epidemic requires.
