Readers’ Voice: Deadly Dengue Must Be Prevented

block

Aedes mosquitoes are solely responsible for dengue outbreak in Bangladesh. Generally, they release eggs in clean water. So we need to be careful about water storage. If someone gets sick by Dengue fever, he/she should immediately consult with the doctor and take proper treatment. Otherwise, he may die. We should use mosquito net when we go to sleep in bed. We also should use insect repellent, wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants, and control mosquitoes inside and outside our home.
We urge the government to take steps to stop spreading Aedes mosquito. Only our consciousness can help us to get ourselves protected from this deadly Dengue fever.
