The Minister of Health, Francisco Alabi, confirmed this Monday a fourth death from dengue in El Salvador, which corresponds to a minor. The official urged the population to Go to a health center as soon as symptoms of the disease appear to avoid complications.
“We reiterate the call to parents and caregivers of children to go to a health center as soon as possible and avoid self-medication,” Alabi posted on social network X.
Alabi also stressed the importance of acting quickly: “Let’s not waste valuable time. We will continue the fight once morest this disease; help us to destroy mosquito breeding grounds in your home and community: it is a task for everyone..
At the moment, the Ministry of Health coordinates plans of fumigation throughout the country and promotes awareness campaigns to combat the proliferation of the transmitting mosquito. Despite the four deaths, El Salvador maintains relatively low figures compared to other Central American nations, where dengue has caused dozens of deaths and thousands of confirmed cases.
