The district administration of Haripur has intensified its anti-dengue efforts through a comprehensive campaign aimed at curbing the spread of the mosquito-borne disease. The initiative combines preventive measures, active surveillance, and public awareness to tackle dengue at its source.
District health authorities reported that field teams are actively engaged in the mechanical removal of dengue vectors by targeting potential mosquito breeding sites. This includes clearing stagnant water, cleaning drains, and removing containers or objects where water may collect and facilitate mosquito breeding.
In addition to these immediate actions, long-term control strategies such as source reduction and environmental management are being implemented. These efforts focus on engaging the community to maintain clean surroundings and eliminate breeding grounds in both residential and public areas.
To ensure early detection and containment, active surveillance is being carried out in households and outdoor locations.
