The Ministry of Health of Guerrero launched a campaign to combat mosquito fogging. Photo: Notimex.


The health secretary in the state, Antonio Jaimes Herrera said the mosquito that transmits dengue has become resistant to insecticides used to combat it, and this has led to their rapid reproduction.

When launching today a program to strengthen anti-mosquito fogging transmitter of dengue, adding that constantly has to be changing the insecticide because the Aedes mosquito aegytus has become resistant to it.

He noted that given the situation, the vector has been extended from 700 meters to 700 thousand meters for invasion, which means that the actions against them must be higher.

This day, the state Health Sector initiated a program to strengthen fogging an extraordinary investment of 700 thousand pesos next week in the North will be another investment of 900 thousand pesos.

He said that in each of the remaining regions will be an investment of 500 thousand dollars, but said that is not enough as the mosquito invasion has reached a very fast pace, which also has to do with the lack of cleanliness of the yards of homes .

Guerrero believed that requires an investment exceeding 60 million pesos to cope with evil, which means one hundred percent more than the resources currently available to health, to combat dengue.

Jaimes Herrera reported that until now it has 554 reports of two thousand cases of dengue, of which 673 are of the hemorrhagic type and at least one hundred people are hospitalized, receiving medical attention.

Isaura Lopez Villalobos Collaboration

Guadalajara, Jalisco .- Today the University of Guadalajara, Nayarit and Colima coordination with a research project conducted to detect, in different regions, some other mosquitoes transmitting malaria, dengue and Chagas' disease, the latter have been analyzed dietary preference, behavior , ecology and distribution in different areas of these regions.

However, the researcher at the University of Guadalajara (UdeG) focused on entomological studies, Ezequiel Maga??n Castelum, warned that "Jalisco is a bomb" to present the disease of malaria, onchocerciasis, filariasis, among others, due to the variety of mosquitoes.

Add for example, that in the Forest of Spring, there are different varieties of vectors, which could pose a serious threat to the population.

Experts say further that to the constant migration movements, an ill patient by these vectors, the risk of transmission in Mexico, so it is important to be vigilant.

Researchers refer to be precise observation of suspected cases are recorded.

"Jalisco is a bomb" to present the disease of malaria, onchocerciasis, filariasis, to the different flies that live in the territory of Jalisco, in the Bosque de la Primavera abound different vectors transmitting these diseases.

The researcher at the University of Guadalajara (UdeG) focused on entomological studies, Ezequiel Maga??n Castelum, warns that with the arrival of an infected person to the areas where a proliferation of vectors can start the transmission and we have more diseases. "

According to scientific evidence indicate that the mosquito Aedes aegypti and other mosquitoes of the genus Aedes, Haemagogus and Sabetha, transmit yellow fever, characterized by liver failure, renal, myocardial and generalized hemorrhages with a high fatality rate.

The female mosquito Aedes aegypti is abundant in humid areas of standing water around clean and is usually found in urban areas. The largest outbreak occurred in Africa, South America, Central America and the Caribbean.

The Malaria is transmitted by female mosquitoes of the type: Anopheles,

falciparum and vivax, in Jalisco from 2008 to date 20 people have fallen ill.

Meanwhile, the infection is caused by onchocerciasis vector Simulium metallicum and filariasis comes from the families Culicidae or Phlebotomidae

Faced with the constant migration of a sick patient by these vectors there is a risk of transmission in Mexico.

Today in coordination with the University of Guadalajara Nayarit and Colima do a research project to identify the different regions some other mosquitoes transmitting malaria, dengue and Chagas' disease, the latter have been analyzed dietary preference, behavior, ecology and distribution in different areas these regions.

A scientific institution have arrived from France and Brazil to analyze the vectors that exist in the different regions of the state.

Indeed, the Jalisco Health Secretariat monitored those who came to the country of South Africa on the world to identify diseases in a timely manner as rickettsia, malaria, African trypanosomiasis, hepatitis A, C and E, yellow fever, leptospirosis.

Just as tuberculosis, polio, measles, meningitis, rabies, cholera, typhoid, influenza, seasonal influenza A-H1N1 and sexually transmitted diseases.

Recently, however, the National Center for Epidemiological Monitoring and Disease Control (Cenavece) has detected Aedes aegypti, the mosquito which transmits the virus causing dengue, in unusual places including the Mexico City metropolitan area, Cuernavaca, Aguascalientes and Queretaro.

According to Health Secretary Jose Angel Cordova, transmitting mosquitoes are now found in zones higher than 5,000 feet ? far above elevations where the bugs were previously found.

In Sonora, health authorities reported 65 cases of dengue through the third week of July, mainly in the state capital of Hermosillo and municipalities in the southern part of the state. In Guerrero, meanwhile, state health officials reported a 40 percent increase in dengue cases over last year's numbers. Most of the sicknesses were in the resort city of Acapulco. By the third week of July, the Guerrero State Health Department registered 2,491 cases, including six deaths. Nationwide, 8,850 dengue cases ? including 16 fatalities ? were tallied in the same time period.

There are no drugs or vaccines in the treatment of dengue, so that should keep the patient comfortable, medicines for fever and body aches as well as plenty of fluids.

It is very important not to self-medicate, especially not to take ibuprofen or aspirin to treat fever and pain.

If warning signs appear (such as bleeding from anywhere, uncontrollable vomiting, abdominal pain, changes in the state of consciousness, cyanosis and cold skin) must go immediately to the doctor because it may evolve into a dengue hemorrhagic fever and a state "shock" that can lead to death if not treated properly.

What to do to prevent dengue?

* Turn over objects that hold water.
* Cover water containers clean.
* Destroy the objects that do not use and can collect water.
* Use creams, sprays and other mosquito repellents for personal use sold in shops and pharmacies.
