"The high number of attacks this DB, it may be because of high rainfall. Several efforts we have done, including the mosquito nest eradication (PSN), coordination meetings and the provision of hospitals, as well as the last alternative fogging," he said.

To suppress the high number of cases of DB in Semarang, the city Health Department (DKK) Semarang requested cooperation between cross-sectoral. As the Department of Education, Ministry of Religious Affairs, and family planning as well Bapermasper PKK-district and urban village.
