Dengue Awareness for
Students
As everybody knows “Health is wealth”.
“Good health and good sense are two of life’s greatest blessings”
but now a day some dangerous diseases effects on health very much like one of
its example is Dengue Fever.
Dengue fever, also known as break bone fever, is a mosquito-borne
infection that can lead to a severe flu-like illness. It is caused by four
different viruses and spread by Aedes mosquitoes. There are
currently no vaccines. The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
estimate that 400 million people are infected each year.
How did we start?
We started by doing survey in schools and faced many problems. We
taught the children how can they save themselves and their families from
dengue. We advised them to spread this information among their knowns. So that
all people will be aware of this disease. This campaign will be continued till
the people will be continuing to tell the persons they will meet and they care
about.
How did we counsel the students?
First we started by giving lecture. We asked many questions to
them to know what are they known to?
The programme was organised by our Vice-Principal Mrs. V. Amirtham
and dengue awareness speech given by Assistant Professor Mrs. M.Selvamalini and
at the end of the programme NILAVEMBU KASHAYAM given for all students.
