Dengue/dengue haemorrhagic fever in Philippines

Date: October 4, 2010

Yats Leisure shares discussions, information, reports and suggestions for prevention of Dengue virus in Philippines.ย  Parents in Manila, Angeles City, Cebu, Subic and Clark Philippines look for ways to protect their children and infants from mosquito bites that can transmit Dengue.ย  Anti-mosquito patches are made available in Manila, Cebu, Pampanga Angeles City, Subic and Clark Philippines answering the requests of guests and friends of Yats Leisureโ€™s for more solutions to enhance the protection of children and loved ones against Dengue in Philippines.

Please read the following excerpt/article related to Dengue Fever which might enhance your knowledge about Dengue and the mosquito that spreads this virus.

Dengue is the most common mosquito-borne viral disease of humans that in recent years has become a major international public health concern. Globally, 2.5 billion people live in areas where dengue viruses can be transmitted. The geographical spread of both the mosquito vectors and the viruses has led to the global resurgence of epidemic dengue fever and emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever (dengue/DHF) in the past 25 years with the development of hyperendemicity in many urban centers of the tropics.

Transmitted by the main vector, the Aedes aegytpi mosquito, there are four distinct, but closely related, viruses that cause dengue. Recovery from infection by one provides lifelong immunity against that serotype but confers only partial and transient protection against subsequent infection by the other three. There is good evidence that sequential infection increases the risk of more serious disease resulting in DHF.

DHF was first recognized in the 1950s during the dengue epidemics in the Philippines and Thailand. By 1970 nine countries had experienced epidemic DHF and now, the number has increased more than fourfold and continues to rise. Today emerging DHF cases are causing increased dengue epidemics in the Americas, and in Asia, where all four dengue viruses are endemic, DHF has become a leading cause of hospitalization and death among children in several countries.

Currently vector control is the available method for the dengue and DHF prevention and control but research on dengue vaccines for public health use is in process. The global strategy for dengue /DHF prevention and control developed by WHO and the regional strategy formulation in the Americas, South-East Asia and the Western Pacific during the 1990s have facilitated identification of the main priorities: strengthening epidemiological surveillance through the implementation of DengueNet; accelerated training and the adoption of WHO standard clinical management guidelines for DHF; promoting behavioral change at individual, household and community levels to improve prevention and control; and accelerating research on vaccine development, host-pathogen interactions, and development of tools/interventions by including dengue in the disease portfolio of TDR (UNDP/World Bank/WHO Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases) and IVR (WHO Initiative for Vaccine Research).

ANTI-MOSQUITO PATCHES to protect children and infants against Dengue spreading mosquito bites in Philippines

Anti-mosquito patches are the most effective means of protecting children, infants and loved ones against mosquito bites.

Mosquito Patches, finally available in Philippines, are a lot easier especially for children.ย  These anti-mosquito patches stick to the clothing and are usually effective for 10 hours of more against mosquito bites.

Mosquito Repellent Anti-mosquito Patches are now available in the Manila Philippines for p650/box in very limited quantities clearly unable to meet surging demands for effective protection against Dengue Fever transmitted through mosquito bites.

These mosquito repellents are the most child-friendly forms of mosquito-bite preventions available today in the Philippines.ย ย  Although the odor is medium strong, it is much more child-friendly than sprays and lotions applied to the skin.
