The Secretariat of Health of the Municipality of Concordia reported that a probable positive case of dengue was detected, and in light of its appearance, the sanitary blockade indicated by the protocol will be carried out this Saturday.
The case corresponds to a young man residing in the downtown area, and studies are being conducted to determine the origin of the probable contagion, while awaiting laboratory confirmation.
The Secretariat of Health acted in coordination with provincial health authorities for the application of the required protocol.
It recalled that the best prevention for dengue disease is to take personal measures to avoid the spread of the Aedes aegypti vector mosquito.
The Ministry of Health of the province of Entre Ríos established as a guiding criterion that the vaccine is not the main strategy for prevention, but rather to focus attention on cleaning tasks.
It was agreed that the first line of defense to prevent the disease is the elimination of mosquito breeding sites in the home and surrounding areas, and that early consultation and close monitoring of cases by the health team are the main strategies to avoid hospitalization situations and severe cases of the disease.
