Health Ministry sounds alarm over spike in dengue cases

By ZUHRIN AZAM AHMAD

PUTRAJAYA: The Health Ministry has sounded the alarm over this year's drastic rise in the number of dengue cases, with the disease having claimed the lives of 20 people so far.
Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said with over 9,500 cases reported this year, the public ought to pay attention to the situation to stop it from worsening.
He said with more than 50% of the cases being reported in Selangor, residents in the state needed to urgently ensure that their areas were kept cleaned.
"Keeping our residential areas clean is definitely the most effective way to keep the Aedes mosquitoes away.
"Local authorities also must ensure that they follow the garbage collection schedule strictly," he told newsmen after officiating a health carnival in Bandar Baru Salak Tinggi near here Saturday.
There were 7,850 cases with 12 deaths reported during the same period last year.
Liow said uncollected garbage provide a conducive spot for Aedes to breed.
He said the high number of cases in Selangor could be due to the inefficiency of the local authorities in the state to collect garbage.
"It takes less than a week for Aedes to breed in these places.
"Local authorities in Selangor have to be improve on this as the state has the highest density and so many flats," he added.
Liow also said a vaccine for dengue was expected to be ready by 2014.
"However, I must stress that prevention is the still best way to manage dengue," he said.


What about this 'explosive' expose by Sarawak Report?

Is Liow going to do anything about it?
