Haiti - Health : Sanitation, an individual work at first 27/08/2014 11:31:19 Friday through 10 departments, environmental agents, neighborhood committees, volunteers from the Red Cross will engage with the public in order to curb the possible rise of certain diseases transmitted by mosquitoes, including: malaria, dengue, chikungunya and yellow fever, whsoe some of these diseasescan be fatal, if the care is not provided on time. "For some time, our population is facing a range of diseases transmitted by mosquitoes. Every rainy season, cases tend to increase," explained Dr. Georges Dubuche, Director Genral of MSPP, before adding that it's the uncleanliness, sewage, lack of sanitation, that causes the proliferation of mosquitoes responsible for the spread of these diseases." He recognizes that this is not a single day of action and civic awareness, that can prevent the increase of these diseases stressing that ""this is a campaign that wants to set the tone." Dr. Agenor Junior Clergé, Departmental Director of program and project to the Haitian Red Cross of the national sanitation campaign, abounds in the same direction stressing that "this should not be a matter of one day, this should be done every day," for this purpose he announced that CRH would send a million robots messages (SMS) via telephone networks, to sensitize the population to become more involved in cleaning up their neighborhood saying "this work must first be an individual battle."
