Dengue Awareness Campaign

The City Government thru the City Health Office in coordination with the Department of Health launched the "Dengue Awarenss Campaign". The activity was held yesterday at the Jogger's covered court in Calbayog City.

In attendance were Mayor Mel Sarmiento, DOH-8 Dengue Control Coordinator Dr. Adelfo Labnao, City Health Officer Cesar Sabenicio and Barangay Officials, Health Workers (BHW) and Nutirion Scholars (BNS) from Districts 1 & 2. The activity included a lecture on "Dengue: the disease and its prevention" and the symbolic rininging of bells which launched the 4:00 o'clock clean-up habit for all barangays in the city.
