In recent years, Brescia has experienced an increase in issues related to mosquitoes, which can be vectors for diseases such as Chikungunya and Dengue. In response to this situation, ATS Brescia has launched an information campaign to raise awareness among the population about the prevention of diseases transmitted by these insects. It is essential for citizens to contribute to the fight against mosquitoes by eliminating stagnant water in their outdoor spaces and adopting preventive measures such as using repellents and wearing protective clothing.
ATS Brescia actively collaborates with local municipalities to plan disinfestation interventions and monitor the circulation of vectors. Public health is a shared responsibility: in addition to keeping gardens and balconies clean, it is important to stay informed about health risks before traveling abroad and to consult a doctor if experiencing any suspicious symptoms upon returning.
