People move away as health workers fumigate a slum to prevent an outbreak of dengue fever in Jakarta, Indonesia, on Monday, March 23, 2020. While 2019 was the worst year on record for global dengue cases, experts fear an even bigger surge is possible because their efforts to combat it were hampered by restrictions imposed in the coronavirus pandemic.
Southeast Asian countries like Singapore and Indonesia have dealt with concurrent outbreaks of dengue and coronavirus this year. In Brazil, where there are over 1.6 million COVID-19 infections, at least 1.1 million cases of dengue have been reported, with nearly 400 deaths, according to the Pan American Health Organization.
Health workers who would destroy mosquito-breeding sites in India’s capital of New Delhi are also screening people for the virus. Staying home -- one way to slow outbreaks of COVID-19, especially in cities -- poses greater risks for spreading dengue, said Singapore’s National Environment Agency . That’s because the Aedes mosquito bites during the day, and with more people staying home, where mosquito populations are high, the more likely they are to be bitten.
Working with communities in Latin America to stop mosquitoes from breeding had been the most successful anti-dengue strategy in recent years, Tallarico said. But with strict limitations on movement, she said they didn’t know whether these measures were still happening, and “this is the big concern for us.”
Dengue patients need acute care, and this could lead to a “double whammy” that overwhelms health care systems, said Scott O’Neill, founder and director of the World Mosquito Program.
Bring those case numbers up and shut down America... signed the NWO aka Satanic cult club paying MSM to spread lies too help destroy America.

Coronavirus pandemic plugs up dengue prevention effortsThe cascading effects of Covid-19 restrictions hamper efforts to cope with seasonal outbreaks of dengue, an incurable, mosquito-borne disease that is also known as “breakbone fever' for its severely painful symptoms. Covid has definitely overshadowed the global coverage of other fatal diseases plus hunger. The main reason is those diseases mainly affect the poor and the weak whereas Covid is more potent against the rich. Unfortunately that is a dark reality of the wold we live in.
