For several consecutive weeks, the number of cases has been sharply decrease and the impact on emergencies and hospital care has returned to normal. By way of comparison, the confirmed cases were 7,500 in week 13, at the height of the epidemic, against 197 in week 24, the passages in the emergency services of the department were 389 admissions in week 16, against 9 in week 25.
The health indicators are therefore in sharp decline, and no more significant impact is observed in city medicine and the hospital.
Remove the circulation of chikungunya: a collective commitment
In order to avoid new contaminations and end the circulation of the virus, the Anti-Scecorelle (LAV) service of the ARS Reunion prioritizes its interventions around the cases declared by the medical biology laboratories. It is therefore essential, in the event of symptoms, to consult your doctor and to carry out a biology analysis.
In addition, local communities continue the actions of health, and awareness among the population with the support of the ARS.
LAV interventions are also focused on strategic sites, especially to protect the most vulnerable people: housing of infants, women at the end of pregnancy and the elderly with comorbidities, maternity, nursing homes, nurseries, schools.
On these sites, several actions are deployed: prospecting to identify and delete larval lodges, awareness of occupants, distribution of repellents, Larvicides treatments (against larvae) in the event of impossibility of suppression of larval cottages at the moment.
Insecticide treatments will be reserved only for intervention perimeters around cases, in order to limit the implementation of resistance to insecticide in insects and the undesirable effects on the environment.
We can all act
The health authorities recall the importance of an individual and collective mobilization and invite the Reunionese to continue to apply the prevention gestures:
- Consult a doctor in the event of symptoms to allow rapid screening and inform the ARS LAV service, which will thus be able to intervene effectively in the areas concerned;
- Use repellents;
- Eliminate the larval lodges around home;
- Use mosquito nets.
