MEDAN (Alert): In the two-month period (January-February 2010), reported 10 people died and another 877 treated infected by Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) in various regions in North Sumatra.


Based on the data obtained at the Public Health Service Alert North Sumatra, on Wednesday (17 / 3), most DHF cases reported from Medan city of one dead and 197 treated. Then, Deli Serdang three died and 170 treated, P. Siantar 5 died and 129 treated and Tanjung Balai one died and 9 treated.


Head of North Sumatra Health dr. Candra Syafei, who contacted SpOG Watchful by telephone said it was always written to all districts at least twice a year so be wary of DHF and do langkahlangkah anticipation.


In this case, Public Health Service district must conduct fogging (fumigation) focused on each location found DHF cases. Also, do outreach to the public about dengue disease and prevention efforts.


However, Chandra said, the government's efforts will not produce results if there is no public participation. Because, fogging the focus is only able to kill adult mosquitoes.


"While people are expected in implementing the Elimination of Mosquitoes nest (PSN) that is drained and closed water reservoirs and bury the junk potential mosquito breeding grounds," said Candra.


In a separate, head of the Medan City Health, dr. Edwin Effendi, MSc says it has made efforts to control dengue by fogging focus and outreach to the community by involving health center line.


Edwin expects community participation in the conduct PSN in the neighborhood. Because, there are certain tempattempat potential mosquito nest and escaped the attention of health workers such as refrigerator water reservoirs, water storage AC, flower vase and lainlain.


"If tempattempat hidden like this, of course only the owner knows. Thus, efforts to control and prevention of dengue will not achieve maximum results without the participation of the community, "said Edwin.


Regarding the number of DHF cases, Edwin admitted that Medan is a disease endemic areas. It is not separated from the high mobility of the population. For example, residents from other areas came to Medan to work or people who work in the field other regions.


"Because of the high mobility of the population, it is difficult to know exactly where the location of transmission. There is the possibility of transmission occurs in the workplace or at home. Transmission can also occur at school or neighborhood, "said Edwin. (M26)
