Mr. Ravichandran held a meeting with M. Geetharani, City Health Officer, and senior officials of public health department. He took stock of the preventive measures being taken against dengue and other communicable diseases and steps taken to prevent mosquito breeding.
Pointing out the forthcoming monsoon season, he asked the officials to list out vulnerable areas so as to take pre-monsoon preventive steps to control mosquito breeding.
Effective steps should be taken on clusters, where dengue and other cases were reported. Similarly, awareness campaigns should be carried out to create awareness among people about the need for destroying mosquito breeding sources.
