ANO ANG DENGUE?
- Ang DENGUE ay isang impeksyon na dala ng kagat ng babaeng lamok na Aedes Aegypti. Maaaring magka-dengue ang isang tao hanggang sa apat na beses dahil sa iba’t iba nitong serotypes (DENV1, DENV2, DENV3 at DENV4).

- Ang aedes aegypti ay kadalasan nangangagat sa pagitan ng 6:00-8:00 ng umaga at 4:00-8:00 ng gabi, nangingitlog sa malinaw na tubig, tulad ng makikita sa flower vases, at naiipong tubig-ulan sa gulong o basyong lata. Ang mga lamok ay karaniwang naglalagi sa madidilim na lugar ng bahay.

SINTOMAS NG DENGUE
-Biglaang pagkakaroon ng mataas
na lagnat na tumatagal ng
dalawa hanggang pitong araw.

-Masakit na kalamanan,
kasukasuan at ng likod
ng mata.

-Panghihina
-Namumulang mga butlig
o maliliit na patse sa balat.

-Pagdurugo ng ilong
kapag nagsimulang bumaba
ang lagnat

-Sakit ng tiyan
-Sukang kulay kape
-Maitim na dumi

PAANO MAIIWASAN ANG DENGUE?
MAG 5 S KONTRA DENGUE

S - Search and Destroy
- Ang Dengue Mosquito ay namamahay sa nakaimbak na malinis na tubig kaya:
-siguraduhing palitan ang tubig ng flower base at linisin ito minsan sa isang linggo.
-Takpan ang mga timba o iba pang imbakan ng tubig
-Itaob ang mga bote, lata at iba pang maaaring pag-ipunan ng tubig at pangitlugan ng lamok.
-Linisan ang mga alulod ng bahay para masigurong walang naiimbak na tubig na maaaring bahayan at pangitlugan ng lamok.
-Siguraduhing malinis ang ating kapaligiran. Mag 4 o'clock habit ng paglilinis araw-araw.

S - Seek Early Consultation
-Kung may lagnat na ng dalawang (2) araw, agad komunsulta sa doctor sa pinakamalapit na Health Center o Ospital.

S - Secure Self Protection
-Iwasan ang maikling kasuotan upang hindi madaling makagat ng lamok. Magsuot ng long sleeves o pants na natatakpan ang balat upang hindi madaling makagat ng lamok.
-Magpahid ng MOSQUITO REPELLANT at SABON na may moisturizer kontra panunuyo ng balat.
-Gumamit ng kulambo sa pagtulog umaga man o gabi.

S - Sustain Vector Control Measures such as Spraying, Misting and Larviciding
-Ang spraying, misting at larviciding ay isinasagawa upang makaiwas sa pagdami ng bilang ng nakapipinsalang lamok na may dalang dengue virus. Ito ay isinasagawa ng cycle at hindi minsan lamang.

S - Sustain Hydration
-Panatilihin ang pag inom ng Oral Rehydrating Solution, o paglalagay ng swero kung kinakailangan.
