Koulgorin:Bingo The Prefect of the Bingo department and President of the special delegation, Yacouba Gouem, led an awareness and destruction session targeting larval habitats in Koulgorin on November 7. This initiative was part of the 4th round of the National Vector Control Days (JNLAV), as observed on-site by AIB.
According to Burkina Information Agency, Yacouba Gouem was accompanied by Télesphore Ouédraogo, the Head Nurse of the Koulgorin Post, and his team. Together, they visited local concessions to promote civic actions against malaria and dengue.
During the session, health professionals and local authorities engaged with residents to emphasize the importance of hygiene and sanitation to improve the living environment. They also implemented practical measures, such as the systematic destruction of larval breeding sites found in yards and the removal of used tires serving as receptacles for stagnant water.
The JNLAVs, established by the Ministry of Health, aim to encourage community participation in eradicating mosquito breeding grounds and reducing the transmission of vector-borne diseases.
