JAKARTA – Entering the rainy season, residents of Central Jakarta are asked to be aware of the potential Dengue fever Dengue (DHF) in residential areas. The government has also prepared a special hospital for dengue patients.
“Residents must do the PSN independently, but the detection must still go through Jumantik,” said Central Jakarta Mayor Dhany Sukma when confirmed by VOI, Saturday, November 6.
He said, prevention of mosquito larvae must continue to be echoed. As with the Mosquito Nest Eradication (PSN) through Jumantik cadres. However, preventive measures through Jumantik also need to be supported by residents as residents of the house.
In addition, residents must also pay attention to what is done to prevent larvae. Such as draining water regularly, closing places where larvae can grow and destroying them.
“The occupants of the house should pay more attention to the environment in which they live. Do not allow the growth of mosquito larvae,” he said.
In addition, Dhany also instructed the ranks of the lurah and sub-district to mobilize all the potential that exists in the community to carry out monitoring and PSN. As well as coordinating with health facilities.
“So when there is a minimal risk, the response time is fast. Before that happens, preventive and promotive steps must be put forward,” he said.
Regarding the availability of hospitals for handling DHF during this pandemic, according to him, hospitals in Central Jakarta for handling DHF are still safe.
However, the Central Jakarta City Administration (Pemkot) does not expect the Central Jakarta area to get cases dengue fever. “We don’t expect that to happen, but if it happens, the hospital must be ready,” he said.
