The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has released a public alert concerning the possible increase of dengue and malaria in flood-prone regions as a result of significant flooding and continuous monsoon showers.
The NDMA spokesperson stated that standing water from floods and heavy rainfall presents a significant danger of diseases spread by mosquitoes. The agency has advised the community to implement safety measures, such as wearing face masks and using mosquito nets, to prevent exposure.
If illness occurs, individuals are urged to see a doctor promptly.
Guidelines issued by the NDMA focus on preventing the spread of dengue and malaria. The agency has voiced worries regarding swift disease spread in areas impacted by flooding, particularly in locations where water has collected because of monsoon weather
