Dirty weather for the inhabitants of the pond and the surroundings. After the discoveries of the two indigenous cases of Chikungunya in Salon-de-Provence, at the end of June, which now increased to five cases, with an episode which is not finished, according to the French Public Health website, it was dengue which was detected in the town of Rognac.
It is the association of Brets-Barjaquets (ABB), a zone decidedly little spared at the moment (with the fire of Spur Environnement on June 14), which communicated on Facebook, Wednesday: Wednesday: “We were informed of a case of dengue proven in the Barjaquets district. We contacted the Regional Health Agency (ARS) who confirmed this case to us. An investigation has been carried out, measures have been taken and a demoustication will be carried out tomorrow (This morning note.) From 4 to 8 am within a radius of 150 meters around the infected hearth, depending on the instructions of the ARS “write those who claim to be an independent association.
Strong fever, intense headache
There is a trace of the demoustication operation on the Ville de Rognac page, but without mentioning the case of dengue: “ARS PACA has mandated the interdepartmental agreement for the realization of an eradication campaign of the Tiger Mosquito this week on a part of the municipality. This operation consists of an insecticide spray from the public highway from a vehicle, and if necessary, can be supplemented by targeted interventions using portable devices, in outdoor spaces (courses, gardens). No particular danger and the households concerned were informed as mailboxes “.
With a fun video of ARS on demoustication, which gives voice to a tiger mosquito, whose tone does not necessarily stick with the symptoms associated with dengue: high fever, 40 degrees, intense headaches, retro-orbital pain, muscle and joint pain, nausea, vomiting …
Immediately, the inhabitants of the other parties of the commune claimed similar interventions by their homes. Without necessarily knowing that a case of dengue was behind this operation.
Brushcutting in schools
Asked, the mayor, Christophe Gonzalez (RN), recognizes that it might have had to add it to the publication and again argues his lack of experience in the function. “I’m going to see it added it. Social networks and I have two, I admit. In any case, after being informed, Monday or Tuesday, we did the necessary in schools, in terms of brushcutting. And in terms of cleaning, inside and outside, so that children do not touch the products. What I can tell you is that it is a case reported with an infected area”.
Contacted, the ARS confirms this information: “We regularly have some cases reported. Currently, there are 29 in the Bouches-du-Rhône. This is why we did not communicate, unlike Salon-de-Provence where they were indigenous cases, people who had not traveled. We did door to door last week, to find the zero patient, which we have not still detected because it is perhaps asymptomatic. Asked from our demustic operator, the interdepartmental agreement, to intervene “.
On Facebook, the information of the ABB was also taken up by a member of the list led by Willy Nicolet to the last municipal elections, Rognac otherwise, Swan Zanic, with more than 120 shares currently and additional information on the case of DE DEGGE, which would be on the alley of olive trees. And of course, many complaints about not having been informed by the municipality. In Rognac, decidedly, the municipal elections are well launched.
