On October 9, information from the People's Committee of Cam Lo district (Quang Tri) said that the dengue fever situation in the locality is increasing rapidly and becoming more complicated. Up to now, the whole district has recorded 9 dengue fever outbreaks, with 4/9 outbreaks being active. The total number of dengue fever cases in Cam Lo district from the beginning of 2024 to October 7 is 148 cases in 8/8 communes and towns. Continuously in September and early October, there were 26 cases of dengue fever hospitalized.
The reason for the complicated dengue fever in Cam Lo district is that many households have the habit of growing ornamental plants, storing rainwater, and often using chicken feeding utensils that contain stagnant water, and do not pay attention to the work of killing mosquito larvae. In addition, the complicated weather increases the risk of new outbreaks.
