Dengue is only transmitted from infected dengue mosquitoes but spread by infected persons moving and not taking enough care. It is mainly spread where public gathers rarely from private gardens since it has low flying span and needs to bite an infected person. inspecting private compounds and filing cases without written notices leads only to corruption, Further the i9nspectors who have visited infected places are likely to spread infection. Dengue reduced by half during covid when no infection was carried out but multiplied when private compounds are inspected. The solution as per WHO report of 2024 is to bring down the temperature and the lasting and positive solution is growing trees. All the big noise is made by parties with vested interests and encouraged by state to avoid blame without going into the facts. Dengue prevention propaganda in private compounds leads to waste in several hundreds of millions with little results. please don't believe in false propaganda but facts.
