    During the first two months of 2019, the entity registered 84 cases of dengue, while in the same period of 2018 they were 16. Currently the state occupies the fifth place by number of confirmed cases and the eleventh in relation to the incidence rate .

    The municipalities with the highest number of cases are Puerto Vallarta with 16, Tlaquepaque with 15, Tomatl?n with 13, Guadalajara with nine and Cihuatl?n with eight.

    "Most of the cases are settled in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area, we would be talking between Tlaquepaque, Guadalajara, Tonal? although we also have in Puerto Vallarta, Sayula, Ciudad Guzm?n, it is more or less the movement we have, the presence of cases now what we have in Tlaquepaque, "said Hern?ndez Barrios.

    Currently there are 866 vectors for the disinfection and cleaning of areas where there is an incidence of dengue, also the Patio Clean program staff will be added to work in the next months in prevention, which adds a total of approximately one thousand workers.

    According to Leandro Hern?ndez, this year will be more committed to prevention than fumigation.

    "If we become aware and eliminate the hatcheries we will practically have no justification to fumigate because we would not have flies, the problem is how do we convince ourselves that we have to eliminate the hatcheries," he said.

    Jalisco has 14,500 ovitrampas, which monitor and control the dengue mosquito, all are in function and are read once a week, the SSJ official said. He also informed that the incidents and results of the last five years are analyzed to date, as there are plans to increase the placement of more loans.
