Dengue grabs 19 Lives

BANJARMASIN - The number of cases of dengue fever (DB) in South Kalimantan (South Kalimantan) for the year 2012 was very high. Even numbers tripled compared to 2011.

Head of Disease Control and Environmental Health (P2PL) Yusransyah South Kalimantan Provincial Health Office revealed, based on data collected at this time there were 1216 cases of DB that occurred during January to December 2012. Of these, 19 people have died.

"The mortality rate was highest in the Upper Middle River(Hulu Sungai Tengah) 7 people," he said as quoted by Radar Yusransyah Banjarmasin (JPNN Group), Thursday (3/1).

Most cases occurred in Banjar DB as many as 146 cases. Then the number of cases is high enough DB also occurs in as many as 134 cases Tabalong. In addition, the number of cases in the Upper Middle River(Hulu Sungai Tengah) is also high, as many as 125 cases then Upper South River (Hulu Sungai Selatan and) Banjarmasin 110 cases and 56 cases.

"The rate of death than in the Upper Middle River(Hulu Sungai Tengah), there are 5 people in Banjar, Banjarmasin 3 people, Tabalong 2 people, 1 person Banjarbaru and Land Seasoning(Tanah Bumbu) 1 person," added Yusransyah.

From these data, Yusransyah acknowledged that the number of cases and mortality in the Upper Middle River((Hulu Sungai Tengah), Banjar, and Banjarmasin very worrying. In the Upper Middle River(Hulu Sungai Tengah), for example, the number of cases reached 125 cases, while the highest number of death reached 7 cases.

"That is in addition to the number of cases, the mortality rate in the Upper Middle River(Hulu Sungai Tengah) is also high. Unlike in the Upper South River(Hulu Sungai Selatan) although there are 110 cases but the death rate of zero percent, "he said.

In addition to the Upper Middle River(Hulu Sungai Tengah), Banjar is also a concern. Case numbers reach 146 cases by the number of fatalities by 5 people. Banjar established as one of the endemic areas along the Upper Middle River(Hulu Sungai Tengah).

"What is also of concern to us just Banjarmasin. Figures only 56 cases but no deaths of 3 people. In fact we have a warning but in fact the death rate is still there, "said Yusransyah.

According Yusransyah, deaths from DB in Banjarmasin actually be reduced to the role of the local health department and the community. South Kalimantan Provincial Health Department itself is already established commitment to the Department of Health Banjarmasin. Fill commitment DB is the number of cases may be still there but the death rate to be suppressed. However, despite the existing commitments, continued Yusransyah, in fact, people still have not implemented environmental health efforts.

Related to the timing of the increase in the case of DB, DB Yusransyah explain the high incidence occurred in October to December 2012. In the period that began entering the rainy season. Mosquito larvae during the rainy season will breed faster.

Meanwhile, the high number of cases of DB in 2012 apparently amounted to 3 times the number of cases of 2011. In 2011, the number of cases in South Kalimantan DB far only 400 cases compared to the 2012 figure reached 1216 cases. The death toll was only 7 people, while in 2012 the death toll reached 19 people.

Why does a higher number of cases in 2012, according to an analysis Yusransyah it happens because DB 2012 cases occur throughout the year, while in 2011 only occurred from January to June, just after it found no further cases of DB until the end of 2011. (Bag / yn / bin)
