The Endemic Disease Control Sector, associated with the Environmental Health Surveillance Division, is warning residents to redouble care, promoting backyard cleaning and clearing accumulated water that can be a breeding ground for Aedes aegytpi mosquitoes, which transmit dengue fever. Only community participation will prevent a new epidemic from spreading.
We ask the residents’ cooperation to intensify care during this period. Parents take advantage of this moment when students participate in school activities focused on health education and join Liga do Bem to promote the elimination of the dengue outbreak.
Remember that dengue can lead to death, but it is an easily preventable disease and fighting the vector is everyone’s duty,” says Claire Wagner, director of Environmental Health Watch.

On Friday (25th), all teachers in the municipal school system will carry out a special health education activity with approximately 32,000 students enrolled from Year 1 to Year 5. Liga do Bem’s business combines the departments of Communication (Secom), Health (Sesau) and Education (Semed).
The task (homework) for the little champions will be to summon the parents or legal guardians to be a part of Liga do Bem and in an activity with the family, inspecting and identifying potential breeding sites for Aeds aegypti mosquito larvae and collecting objects that can accumulate water.
The procedure, envisioned by the communications management team, will have supporting materials with educational content and instructions on carrying out the task. The material contains a QRCODE and a link that redirects to a form, so that parents can identify the student and the school and submit a photo of the task completed.
