Dear Neighbours,
if you do not already know, there has been an outbreak of Dengue Fever cases in our neighbourhood.
You can monitor the situation at the following website - DENGUE - http://www.dengue.gov.sg/ - makes it look almost like Dengue is part of our govt departments.... (bad joke).
But jokes aside, do remember the simple tips -
DO NOT have stagnant water around the house that can become breeding ground for the mozzies.
CHANGE water in your vases every 2 days - and...
While the local doctor has advised that the dengue carrying mosquito has a flying range of up to 1km, we should still make sure that our own backyards and frontyards are clean.
Dengue is avoidable if we all play our part in looking after the housekeeping of our neighbourhood.
If you do see places where there are blocked drains or suspicious neglected sites where water may be gathering and mozzies breeding, do call the NEA Hotline at 1800-333-7777.
Take care now everyone!
