Bengaluru: State Health Commissioner D. Randeep has issued directions to officials of Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), health officials and district surveillance officers to ensure the availability of necessary drugs and logistics such as adulticide and larvicide at all levels, up to village level, as a preventive measure to cure those affected by vector-borne diseases.
“In view of the current transmission season of Vector-Borne Diseases, it is crucial to intensify the vector control measures. The monsoon season supports the widespread proliferation of the Aedes mosquito, which is a vector for Dengue, Chikungunya and Zika Virus diseases,” the Health Commissioner said.
