Public health measures against arboviruses in Brazil
Overview
Brazilian municipalities are implementing various public health measures to combat mosquito-borne diseases and viral outbreaks. In Balneário Camboriú, dengue cases reportedly dropped by 99.8% compared to 2024, utilizing the Wolbachia method and new insecticides. Other regions, such as Rio Claro and Campo Grande, are conducting inspections and spraying to manage dengue risks, while Itajaí has intensified rodent control following a hantavirus fatality.
Efforts to control the Aedes aegypti mosquito have continued, with Tangará da Serra reporting a reduction in high-infestation “red areas” from 88 to 24. In Dourados, a task force has been launched to focus on urban cleaning and the elimination of breeding sites, following a public health emergency decree issued after a chikungunya epidemic caused 19 deaths.
