Preventing Mosquito-borne diseases
Protecting against mosquito-borne diseases.
For the year thus far, Trinidad and Tobago has 126 lab-confirmed cases of Dengue fever and one death from the disease. As such, the Ministry of Health is sharing ways to protect oneself against dengue and other mosquito-borne diseases such as Zika and Chikungunya. The Ministry advised the public to dispose of all unwanted containers from their yard that may collect water and become mosquito breeding grounds.
